acryloyl chloride (C3H3ClO)

acryloyl chloride (C3H3ClO)

Acryloyl chloride is a colorless to yellowish transparent liquid.  Acryloyl chloride is mainly used as a reagent in chemical synthesis for the production of acrylic polymers and acrylates.

Common synonyms: Prop-2-enoyl chloride, 2-Propenoyl chloride

Properties of acryloyl chloride (C3H3ClO):

  • Reactivity: Acryloyl chloride is a reactive compound and can react violently with water, alcohols and amines to form corrosive acids and toxic vapors.
  • Melting point: The melting point of acryloyl chloride is around -42°C.
  • Solubility: Acryloyl chloride is soluble in organic solvents such as ether, chloroform and benzene, but sparingly soluble in water.
  • Health risks: Acryloyl chloride is corrosive to skin, eyes and respiratory tract. It can cause severe burns and irritation on contact. Acryloyl chloride vapors are also toxic by inhalation.
  • Protection and prevention: It is advisable to handle acryloyl chloride in a well-ventilated environment, and to wear personal protective equipment such as gloves, goggles and a respirator. In the event of contact with skin, eyes or respiratory tract, rinse thoroughly with water and seek medical advice.
