1-Chloro-2-propanol Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

colourless to light yellow liquid

Uses

1-Chloro-2-propanol has been used as:

  • chemical intermediate for the manufacture of propylene oxide, a starting material for production of polyurethane polyols and propylene glycol
  • as α,β-halohydrin standard during the enzymatic synthesis of α,β-halohydrins from gaseous alkenes

Definition

ChEBI: 1-chloropropan-2-ol is a secondary alcohol that is isopropanol in which one of the methyl hydrogen atoms is substituted by chlorine. It is an organochlorine compound and a secondary alcohol. It derives from a hydride of a propane.

General Description

Clear colorless to light amber liquid with a mild non residual odor.

Air & Water Reactions

Soluble in water.

Reactivity Profile

May be sensitive to prolonged exposure to light. Incompatible with strong oxidizing agents.

Fire Hazard

1-Chloro-2-propanol is combustible.
