TCI C1256 5-Chloromethyl-2-oxazolidinone (CAS 22625-57-6) is a heterocyclic building block bearing a reactive chloromethyl handle on a stable cyclic carbamate ring. The chloromethyl group readily undergoes nucleophilic substitution with amines, thiols, alkoxides, and other nucleophiles, allowing rapid diversification of the oxazolidinone core. Because this core appears in synthetic antibacterial scaffolds and chiral auxiliary chemistry, the compound is frequently used in medicinal chemistry and library synthesis. AMI Scientific supplies the 5 g pack; as an alkylating reagent it must be handled in a fume hood with full personal protective equipment.
