Benzoyl Chloride 99% Pure

Benzoyl chloride is a colorless to pale yellow liquid acyl chloride derived from benzoic acid, used primarily as a reagent in organic synthesis for acylation reactions. It falls under HTS 2916.32.20.00 as the acid chloride of aromatic monocarboxylic acid (benzoic acid). This high-purity grade (99%) is suitable for laboratory and industrial chemical manufacturing.

Industrial Benzoyl Chloride

Industrial-grade benzoyl chloride used in large-scale production of pharmaceuticals, dyes, and perfumes through acylation of alcohols, amines, and phenols. Classified under HTS 2916.32.20.00 as the halide derivative of benzoic acid per chapter 29 notes on acid halides. Typically contains stabilizers for safe handling and transport.

Benzoyl Chloride with Stabilizer

Benzoyl chloride stabilized with anticaking agents or anti-dusting additives for safe preservation and transport, as permitted by chapter note 2(f). Remains classified under HTS 2916.32.20.00 since additives do not render it suitable for specific use. Used in synthesis of benzamides and esters.

Laboratory Grade Benzoyl Chloride

High-purity benzoyl chloride packaged in small quantities for research laboratories, used in Schotten-Baumann reaction for benzoylation. HTS 2916.32.20.00 applies as it's a separate chemically defined compound of chapter 29 note 1(a). Often sold with 98-99% assay.

Benzoyl Chloride Flake Form

Benzoyl chloride solidified into flakes for easier handling and reduced vapor hazard during transport. Still classified as HTS 2916.32.20.00 under chapter note 2(f) for necessary stabilizers. Used in continuous flow manufacturing processes.

Pharma Grade Benzoyl Chloride

USP/EP grade benzoyl chloride meeting pharmaceutical monograph standards for synthesis of APIs like benzoyl peroxide acne treatments. HTS 2916.32.20.00 as chemically defined aromatic acid chloride. Low heavy metals and residual solvent content.
