Methallyl chloride is the organic compound with the formula CH2=C(CH3)CH2Cl. It is a colorless liquid and a lacrymator. Its properties are similar to those of allyl chloride. It is a strong alkylating agent used to install isobutenyl groups.[1]
Reactivity
It is also a precursor to methallyl ligand. It is an isomer of crotyl chloride.
Methylenecyclopropane can be synthesised via an intramolecular cyclisation reaction from methallyl chloride by treatment with a strong base such as sodium amide.[2]
