Benzyl Chloride at a Glance
Benzyl Chloride (α-chlorotoluene, CAS 100-44-7) is a reactive aromatic intermediate supplied with stated content of 99.50%. It is used for benzyl derivatives, quaternary ammonium surfactants and selected resin, dye and specialty chemical intermediates. ZXCHEM provides industrial supply, technical specifications and free samples for testing. The reference bulk transport class is 6.1 with subsidiary Class 8; the downloadable SDS identifies its stabilized manufacturer reference. Choose ZXCHEM as your benzyl chloride supplier in China for bulk enquiries and technical document support.

Benzyl Chloride Specifications
Values follow the matching legacy ZXCHEM TDS; content, color and DMF entries have no inequality in that source. Packing is an identified common industrial option rather than a certified batch packing statement. The stabilizer in the safety reference is not a supply-composition claim.
Commercial Information
Storage & Shipping
Storage Conditions
Keep tightly closed below 30°C in a dry, ventilated secured area. Protect from heat and ignition, segregate incompatible substances and use chemically compatible corrosion-resistant containers.
Packaging Integrity
Inspect drum liner compatibility, closures and seals before use. Identify the ordered stabilizer system, prevent moisture contamination and retain lot and hazard labels during transfer.
Packaging
200 kg plastic drums, as stated in the matching legacy TDS
Handling & Protection
Use closed transfer or effective extraction. Prevent vapor inhalation and skin or eye contact. Wear suitable chemical-resistant gloves, splash goggles, protective clothing and face protection; provide emergency washing facilities.
What Is Benzyl Chloride?
Benzyl Chloride is a colorless aromatic organochlorine liquid with formula C7H7Cl and molecular weight 126.58 g/mol. Its chloromethyl group supports benzylation reactions used to make other organic compounds. The clean common synonym is α-chlorotoluene.
The matching legacy ZXCHEM TDS states content 99.50% and controls acidity, benzal chloride, methylbenzene, chlorotoluene and other source-listed impurities. Color, density and DMF values without inequality are retained as stated reference entries. No food-protein or bagged-powder information from the old page is used.
Benzyl chloride is used in quaternary ammonium surfactant synthesis and the preparation of benzyl-derived specialty chemicals. Pharmaceutical, fragrance, dye and agrochemical intermediates require qualification against their individual process and impurity requirements; the industrial listing does not certify a regulated finished product.
The bulk shipping entry is UN 1738, Benzyl chloride, Class 6.1 with subsidiary Class 8 and packing group II. The reference SDS describes stabilized material containing propylene oxide; that stabilizer percentage is not asserted for a ZXCHEM supply batch. Use compatible drums and effective exposure controls for sample testing and bulk transfer.

Benzyl Chloride Applications
Quaternary ammonium surfactant synthesis
Benzylating intermediate for selected benzyl-containing quaternary ammonium compounds. Evaluate reaction conditions, residual impurities and the actual stabilizer profile.
Specialty organic intermediates
Building block for benzyl derivatives used in dye, fragrance and other specialty chemistry. Match purity and by-product limits to the downstream synthesis and purification process.
Resin and regulated-intermediate manufacture
Intermediate for selected resin, pharmaceutical and agrochemical production routes. Qualify industrial material against the specific process and final-product requirements.

Benzyl Chloride FAQ
Which Benzyl Chloride grade should I choose?
Compare Content 99.50% against your process requirements. Check the TDS for assay and impurity limits, then test a sample for compatibility and performance in your process.
Can I request a Benzyl Chloride sample for testing?
Request a free sample for testing. Tell us the intended α-Chlorotoluene application, preferred grade and the tests you plan to perform, so that we can arrange a suitable evaluation sample and technical information.
How is Benzyl Chloride packed and shipped?
Standard packing is 200 kg plastic drums, as stated in the matching legacy TDS. The usual MOQ is 1,000 kg, with a lead time of approximately 14 days from order confirmation. The reference bulk transport classification is Class 6.1 — Toxic (subsidiary Class 8).
Which documents are available for Benzyl Chloride?
The TDS covers supply specifications; the reference SDS covers safety and transport. Both can be downloaded on this page. A batch COA can be provided with supply. Request documents for the grade and physical form you are ordering.
