TCI C0995 3-Chloropropiophenone (CAS 936-59-4) is a versatile β-chloroketone building block combining an aryl ketone with a readily displaced beta chlorine atom. Chemists commonly use it to prepare β-aminoketones by substitution with amines, or to generate a reactive Michael acceptor in situ through HCl elimination. Selective carbonyl reduction also provides chlorohydrin intermediates that support downstream and asymmetric synthesis work. AMI Scientific supplies this TCI reagent in a 25 g research pack; keep it tightly closed in a cool, dry place away from moisture and strong bases.
