For any chemist or formulator working with chemical intermediates, a thorough understanding of their physical and chemical properties is fundamental. 1,1,3-Trichloroacetone, identified by CAS number 921-03-9, is a compound whose characteristics make it valuable in specific synthesis routes. As a leading supplier, NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. emphasizes the importance of this knowledge for safe and effective utilization.
The typical appearance of 1,1,3-Trichloroacetone is a colorless liquid, often described with a pungent odor, which serves as an initial indicator for handling. Its key physical parameters include a melting point of -33 °C and a boiling point of 130 °C. The density is approximately 1.238 g/mL at 25 °C, indicating a substance denser than water. These properties are critical for formulators when designing reaction conditions, separation processes, and storage protocols. The molecular formula C3H5ClO2, as sometimes noted, is a typo in some references and should be C3H3Cl3O. The correct molecular weight is 161.41 g/mol.
Proper storage conditions are essential to maintain the stability and quality of 1,1,3-Trichloroacetone. Recommendations typically include storing the product in a ventilated, low-temperature dry warehouse, keeping the container tightly closed to prevent moisture ingress and contamination. It should be stored separately from open flame and heat sources due to its chemical nature. Manufacturers and purchasers should always refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for comprehensive handling instructions. If you are looking to buy 1,1,3-Trichloroacetone and require detailed technical specifications or safety information, partnering with an experienced chemical supplier like us is your best approach.
