General Description

Methoxybenzoyl chloride is a chemical compound with the formula C8H7ClO2. It is a derivative of benzoyl chloride in which one of the hydrogen atoms on the aromatic ring is substituted with a methoxy (CH3O) group. Methoxybenzoyl chloride is a versatile building block for the synthesis of various organic compounds, including pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and dyes. It is commonly used as a reagent in the synthesis of esters, amides, and ketones, as well as in the preparation of 4-methoxybenzoic acid. Methoxybenzoyl chloride is a reactive and corrosive compound that requires careful handling and storage due to its potential to decompose and release toxic fumes when exposed to moisture or water.
