112-16-3 – Reference Information
| Use | is useful as an intermediate in pharmaceutical and organic synthesis. used as a surfactant and other organic chemical synthesis of acylating agent |
| production method | is obtained by reacting lauric acid with thionyl chloride. Thionyl chloride was added dropwise to lauric acid, heated to 75 °c, stirred for 2H, then warmed to 90 °c and refluxed for 2H. The reaction mixture was then fractionated by distilling off excess thionyl chloride under reduced pressure and collecting the 146-150 ° C. (2.13-2.27kPa) fraction as dodecanoyl chloride. The yield was about 80%. |
