Product Description

Allyl Chloride, CAS 107-05-1, is a chlorinated olefin also named 3-chloropropene or 3-chloroprop-1-ene; the EC/EINECS number is 203-457-6.

Synonyms: 3-Chloropropene; 3-Chloroprop-1-ene; Allyl chloride; 1-Chloro-2-propene; Chloropropylene.

CAS: 107-05-1.

Molecular formula: C₃H₅Cl.

Molecular weight: 76.52.

EC number: 203-457-6.

It is a clear, colorless, highly flammable liquid with a pungent, irritating odor that is slightly soluble in water and miscible with ethanol, chloroform, ether and petroleum ether.

Typical properties include melting point about -136 °C, boiling point about 44-46 °C, flash point about -32 °C (closed cup), and relative density about 0.939.

It is widely used as an intermediate to produce epichlorohydrin, glycerin, allyl alcohol and other allyl derivatives, and in the manufacture of synthetic resins.

It is also used in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, dyes, silanes and water-treatment polymers, where the allyl group and reactive chlorine atom support substitution and polymerization reactions.

Confirm assay, 2-chloropropene and other chlorinated impurities, water, acidity and color; reactive impurities can affect downstream selectivity, so the impurity profile should match the intended synthesis.

Allyl chloride is highly flammable, volatile, toxic and corrosive. Store in tightly closed, grounded containers in a cool, ventilated flammable-liquid area away from heat, sparks, open flames, strong oxidizers and incompatible materials, and use vapor controls, corrosion-resistant equipment and suitable PPE.

FAQ - Technical & Supply Chain

  • Q:

    What is Allyl Chloride and how is it identified?

    A: Allyl chloride has CAS 107-05-1, molecular formula C₃H₅Cl and molecular weight 76.52. It is also called 3-chloropropene or 3-chloroprop-1-ene, and is a volatile chlorinated olefin.
  • Q:

    What is Allyl Chloride used for?

    A: Allyl chloride is used to produce epichlorohydrin, glycerin, allyl alcohol and allyl derivatives. It is also an intermediate in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, dyes and synthetic resins because both its allyl group and chlorine atom can participate in downstream reactions.
  • Q:

    Which specifications should be confirmed when purchasing Allyl Chloride?

    A: Confirm assay, 2-chloropropene and other chlorinated impurities, water, acidity and color. Reactive impurities can affect downstream selectivity, so the impurity profile should match the intended synthesis.
  • Q:

    Why is Allyl Chloride handled as a high-hazard chemical?

    A: Allyl chloride is highly flammable, volatile, toxic and corrosive, with a pungent odor. It has both an alkene bond and a reactive chlorine atom, which makes it useful for synthesis but also requires strict engineering controls and PPE.
  • Q:

    How should Allyl Chloride be stored and handled?

    A: Store allyl chloride in tightly closed, grounded containers in a cool, ventilated flammable-liquid area away from heat, sparks, open flames, strong oxidizers and incompatible materials. Use vapor controls, corrosion-resistant equipment and suitable PPE.
