Overview of Lauroyl Chloride

Lauroyl Chloride is an uncolored to pale yellow liquid used extensively in chemical, industrial, and other applications. Lauroyl Chloride is a fatty acid-based chloride that is derived from lauric acid and is valued for its ability to reactivate in chemical synthesis, acylation reactions, and polymer modification. Lauroyl chloride is an essential intermediate for the manufacture of esters, surfactants, and special chemicals.

Its chemical formula to describe Lauroyl Chloride is C12H23ClO. Its structure guarantees high reactivity to alcohols, amines, and other nucleophiles. This provides solid results in the industrial process of chemical processing. It is commonly utilized in conjunction with N-Butylamine, N-Butyllithium, and N-Chlorosuccinimide to create advanced chemical syntheses and laboratory-scale reactions.
