'''''tert''-Butyl chloride''' is the ] with the formula {{chem2|(CH3)3CCl}}. It is a colorless, flammable liquid. It is sparingly soluble in ], with a tendency to undergo ] to the corresponding ''tert''-butyl alcohol. It is produced industrially as a precursor to other organic compounds.<ref name=Ullmann>M. Rossberg et al. "Chlorinated Hydrocarbons" in ''Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry'' 2006, Wiley-VCH, Weinheim. {{doi|10.1002/14356007.a06_233.pub2}}</ref>

== Synthesis ==
''tert''-Butyl chloride is produced by the reaction of ''tert''-butyl alcohol with ].<ref name=Ullmann/> In the laboratory, concentrated ] is used. The conversion entails a S<sub>N</sub>1 reaction as shown below.<ref>James F. Norris and Alanson W. Olmsted "''tert''-Butyl Chloride" Org. Synth. 1928, volume 8, pp. 50. {{doi|10.15227/orgsyn.008.0050}}</ref>

| The acid protonates the alcohol, forming a good ] (water).||Water leaves the protonated ''t''-BuOH, forming a relatively stable tertiary ].||The chloride ion attacks the carbocation, forming ''t''-BuCl.
|}

The overall reaction, therefore, is:
:{{chem2|(CH3)3COH + HCl -> (CH3)3CCl + H2O}}

Because ''tert''-butanol is a tertiary alcohol, the relative stability of the ''tert''-butyl carbocation in the step 2 allows the ] mechanism to be followed, whereas a primary alcohol would follow an ] mechanism.

==Reactions==
When ''tert''-butyl chloride is dissolved in water, it undergoes a ] to ]. When dissolved in alcohols, the corresponding t-butyl ethers are produced.

==Uses==
''tert''-Butyl chloride is used to prepare the antioxidant ''tert''-butylphenol and the fragrance neohexyl chloride.<ref name=Ullmann/>
