Description

Application
Benzoyl chloride is widely used in pharmaceutical chemical and research laboratories as an acylating reagent for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals dyes fragrances and other organic compounds.

Purpose
Its purpose is to introduce a benzoyl group into alcohols amines and other organic molecules during chemical synthesis enabling the preparation of esters amides and related derivatives.

General Description
Benzoyl chloride is a colorless liquid with a pungent odor that is highly reactive toward water and serves as an important acid chloride in organic synthesis.
