Chemical properties

Colorless to pale yellow liquid

The Uses of Cylopropylmethyl chloride

(Chloromethyl)cyclopropane was used in the synthesis of (lithiomethyl)cyclopropane and homoallyllithium via 4,4?-di-tert-butylbiphenyl or naphthalene-catalysed lithiation reaction. On reaction with isolable dialkylsilylene affords 5-silaspiro[4.4]nonane derivative.
