'''Ethyl chloroacetate''' is an organic compound with the chemical formula {{chem2|ClCH2CO2CH2CH3|auto=1}}. It is used primarily in the chemical industry. It is used as a solvent for organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of pesticides (such as sodium fluoroacetate).<ref>{{cite web | url = http://www.epa.gov/chemrtk/hpvis/rbp/105395_Ethyl%20Monochloroacetate_Web_April%202009.pdf | title = Ethyl chloroacetate |website=U.S. Environmental Protection Agency | date = April 2009}}{{dead link|date=July 2025|bot=medic}}{{cbignore|bot=medic}}</ref> ==Use== *An example for the use of this agent was in the synthesis of cinepazet. *Synthesis of Fenmetramide. ==References== {{reflist}}
