'''Cyclohexyl chloride''' (or '''chlorocyclohexane''') is a [chlorinated hydrocarbon](/source/chlorinated_hydrocarbon) with the formula {{chem2|C6H11Cl|auto=1}} or {{chem2|(CH2)5CHCl}}.  It is a colorless liquid.

Cyclohexyl chloride can be prepared from [cyclohexanol](/source/cyclohexanol) by treatment with [hydrogen chloride](/source/hydrogen_chloride).<ref>{{cite journal | author = Henry Gilman and W. E.
