Ethyl chloride, also known as chloroethane (C₂H₅Cl), is a colorless, flammable gas or volatile liquid with a sweet, ether-like odor. It is primarily used as a chemical intermediate in the production of tetraethyl lead, though this application has declined due to environmental regulations. Ethyl chloride is also used as a local anesthetic in minor surgical procedures, particularly as a topical refrigerant to numb the skin before injections or small incisions. Its features include high volatility, low boiling point, and ease of liquefaction under moderate pressure, making it suitable for aerosol sprays and refrigeration applications. Additionally, ethyl chloride is used in the manufacture of other chemicals and as a solvent for fats, oils, and waxes in industrial settings. Despite its usefulness, its flammability and potential health hazards necessitate careful handling and storage.
