'''Cyclohexyl chloride''' (or '''chlorocyclohexane''') is a 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 by treatment with hydrogen chloride.<ref>{{cite journal | author = Henry Gilman and W. E. Catlin | doi = 10.15227/orgsyn.006.0022| title = Cyclohexylcarbinol| journal = Organic Syntheses| volume = 6| pages = 22| year = 1926}}</ref>
