n-Butyl Chloride, also known as 1-chlorobutane, is a colourless, flammable liquid with a slightly sweet, chloroform-like odour. It is an alkyl halide, specifically a primary haloalkane, and is used as a solvent and chemical intermediate in a range of industrial applications.

n-Butyl Chloride is commonly used as a starting material in the production of other chemicals such as butyl rubber, butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), and alkylated phenols. It is also used as a solvent in the manufacturing of pharmaceuticals, pesticides, and herbicides.

In addition to its industrial uses, n-Butyl Chloride is used in organic synthesis reactions, particularly in the conversion of alcohols to alkyl chlorides. It is also used in laboratory settings as a reagent and solvent.

However, n-Butyl Chloride can be hazardous if not handled properly. It is toxic if ingested or inhaled, and can cause skin and eye irritation. Therefore, appropriate safety precautions should be taken when using this chemical, such as using protective equipment and working in well-ventilated areas.

In summary, n-Butyl Chloride is a versatile chemical used as a solvent and starting material in a range of industrial applications. However, care should be taken when handling it due to its potentially harmful effects.
