TCI C0973 2-Chlorobenzyl Alcohol (CAS 17849-38-6) is an ortho-chlorinated benzylic alcohol supplied in a 25 g pack. Its benzylic hydroxyl group is readily oxidized or converted into a leaving group, while the aryl chloride offers a handle for further aromatic functionalization. These complementary reactive sites make it a practical branch point in multi-step synthetic routes for pharmaceutical and agrochemical research. Handle it in a fume hood with gloves and eye protection, and store it tightly closed in a cool, dry, light-protected place.
