<p><strong>Phenyl chloroformate</strong> (CAS: 108-46-3, C7H5ClO2) is a reactive acylating agent produced via phosgenation of phenol. It serves as a critical intermediate in organic synthesis.</p>
<h3>Application</h3>
<ul>
<li>Synthesis of carbamates and urethanes for pharmaceuticals.</li>
<li>Protection of amino groups in peptide manufacturing.</li>
<li>Production of polycarbonates and specialty resins.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Precautions</h3>
<p>Strictly store under inert atmosphere at low temperatures. Use full PPE due to severe corrosivity and hydrolysis risks releasing HCl gas. Not for direct clinical use.</p>
