Chlorocyclohexane is a substance synthesize through the reactants cyclohexane and chlorine. This has a chemical formula of C₆H₁₁Cl. This is a colorless liquid with suffocating odor and is used as an intermediate for the rubber chemicals and agrochemicals. Because it is comprised of one cyclohexane with the chloride replacing one of the H⁺ then, the ratio between the cyclohexane and the chlorine should be 1:1.
