2-Chloro-2-methylpropane Specification

Propane, 2-chloro-2-methyl- , its cas register number is 507-20-0. It also can be called 2-Chloro-2-methylpropane ; 2-Chloroisobutane ; 2-Methyl-2-chloropropane ; 2-Methyl-2-propyl chloride ; 4-01-00-00288 (Beilstein Handbook Reference) ; AI3-30754 ; BRN 1730872 ; Chlorotrimethylmethane ; NSC 6527 ; Trimethylchloromethane ; tert-Butyl chloride ; tert-Butylchloride . It is a colourless liquid. When it is dissolved in water, a polar and protic solvent, the bulky chloride substituent is carried away by it, and isolated from the aliphatic chain, causing an heterolitic rupture of the compound, giving rise to a carbocation which eventually becomes a tertiary alcohol after a water molecule reacts with it, releasing hydrochloric acid as the final product.
