4 +3 | acetyl chloride |

acetyl chloride Explanation: I'm not chemist, but I think this is a misnomer for "cloruro de acetilo", CH3COCl, i.e. acetyl chloride. Just about the only references I can find to "acetilclorhídrico" refer to the pioneering synthesis of acetylsalicylic acid by Charles-Frédéric Gerhardt in 1853. The following is from a Madrid doctoral thesis in Medicine: "En 1853, el químico francés Charles Frederic Gerhardt neutralizó el ácido salicílico con sodio y acetilclorhídrico formando ácido acetilsalicílico" https://eprints.ucm.es/32738/1/T36246.pdf (pp. 28-29) Compare: "In 1853, chemist Charles Frédéric Gerhardt treated acetyl chloride with sodium salicylate to produce acetylsalicylic acid for the first time" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_aspirin Acetyl chloride fits the bill because it's used for fatty acid analysis: "Acetyl chloride has been used in the Lepage and Roy fatty acids analysis, and robotic fatty acid analysis." https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/catalog/product/sial/114189?lan... http://commonorganicchemistry.com/Common_Reagents/Acetyl_Chl... |
