TCI C0237 1-Chloropentane (CAS 543-59-9) is a primary five-carbon alkyl chloride used as a general-purpose building block in organic synthesis. It reacts cleanly in nucleophilic substitution and serves as a starting material for pentylmagnesium chloride in Grignard chemistry. Its moderate chain length makes derived products convenient to purify by distillation, which is useful in both research and teaching laboratories. AMI Scientific supplies this TCI reagent in 25 mL and 500 mL packs, with handling under a fume hood strongly recommended.
