Chemistry Organic Building Blocks Benzyl Chlorides
In industrial applications, benzyl chloride serves as a precursor for the synthesis of benzyl esters, which find wide utilization as plasticizers, flavoring agents, and fragrances.
An organic compound known as α-chlorotoluene or Benzyl chloride, has the chemical formula C6H5CH2Cl. It is a colorless liquid that belongs to the group of reactive organochlorine compounds and is widely used as a chemical building block.
The industrial production of benzyl chloride involves the gas-phase photochemical reaction between chlorine and toluene.
Benzyl chloride finds application in organic synthesis for introducing the benzyl protecting group via reaction with alcohols, leading to the formation of corresponding benzyl ether, benzyl ester, and carboxylic acid.
