Heptyl Chloroformate

About Heptyl Chloroformate

Heptyl Chloroformate is an acylating agent carrying the CAS registry number 33758-34-8. With the molecular formula C8H15ClO2, it has a molar mass of 178.65 g/mol. Systematically, it is named heptyl carbonochloridate. It is also known as Carbonochloridic acid, heptyl ester or n-Heptyl chloroformate.

Keep the container tightly sealed and store it in a cool, dry area. The GHS classification uses the signal word “Danger”, so appropriate gloves, eye protection and ventilation are recommended.

It is commonly used for organic synthesis and API synthesis. It is used across pharmaceutical manufacturing and academic and industrial research.

Standard pack sizes are 100 mg, 250 mg, 1 g and 5 g, and every batch ships with a Certificate of Analysis (COA) and we export worldwide. A Safety Data Sheet (SDS) and technical specifications are available on request.
