Description :

Overview 5-Chlorovaleroyl Chloride 

5-Chlorovaleroyl Chloride is a reactive acyl chloride widely used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and speciality chemicals. It is a colourless to pale yellow liquid with strong reactivity toward nucleophiles, making it valuable for esterification, amidation, and acylation reactions in controlled industrial environments.

Due to its functional acid chloride group, 5-Chlorovaleroyl Chloride plays a crucial role in the production of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), chemical intermediates, and fine chemicals. On ChemicalBull, it is supplied for professional industrial use with strict quality control.

It is commonly used alongside Acetic Acid, Ammonium Hydroxide, and Acetanilide in synthesis and downstream processing.
