Sebacoyl chloride Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

colourless to light yellow liquid with a pungent odour

Uses

Sebacoyl Chloride can be used for cosmetic use that involves excellent activities of absorption and skin protection.

General Description

Sebacoyl chloride is a light yellow, pungent odored di-acryl chloride. It is soluble in hydrocarbons and ethers.It hydrolyzes in water, releasing hydrogen chloride.

Industrial uses

Sebacoyl chloride serves as a key intermediate in the study of synthetic routes for high-performance materials and is also used in the development of biodegradable polymers, aligning with the increasing demand for sustainable material solutions. Its role extends to the synthesis of complex organic molecules where precise insertion of the sebacoyl unit can modify molecular architecture and functionality.

Synthesis

Sebacoyl chloride can be prepared by reacting sebacic acid with an excess of thionyl chloride.
