1-CHLORO-2-METHYL-1-PROPENE Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

Liquid.

Uses

Dimethylvinyl chloride is not used commercially, but is used for research purposes. It has been used in organic syntheses and as a chemical intermediate for the production of isobutylene compounds for laboratory use (IARC 1995, HSDB 2009).

Uses

1-Chloro-2-methylpropene was used to study multiple infrared photon excitation of α-chloro olefins.

Definition

ChEBI: 1-Chloro-2-methylpropene is an organochlorine compound.

General Description

Clear dark yellow to pale orange liquid.

Air & Water Reactions

Highly flammable. May be sensitive to prolonged exposure to air and light. Slightly soluble in water.

Reactivity Profile

1-CHLORO-2-METHYL-1-PROPENE is incompatible with strong oxidizing agents and strong bases.

Hazard

Carcinogen; neoplastigen; moderately toxic; local irritant, and narcotic.

Fire Hazard

1-CHLORO-2-METHYL-1-PROPENE is flammable.

Carcinogenicity

Dimethylvinyl chloride is reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen based on sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity from studies in experimental animals.
