Benzyl Chloride 3D Model — CAS 100-44-7

Benzyl Chloride (C7H7Cl, CAS 100-44-7) — a free educational 3D molecular model for teachers and students, by MolGod.org. Each atom is labelled with its own engraved element symbol: no colour chart needed. Turn the model in your hand to see the shape of Benzyl Chloride: one aromatic 6-membered ring, and 15 bonds in total (9 single and 6 aromatic). Quick starter: ask students to count the engraved symbols (7 C + 7 H + 1 Cl) and check that they add up to 15 atoms and the formula C7H7Cl. Topics it supports in class: aromaticity and delocalised electrons, as well as organohalogen compounds and carbon-halogen bonds. Its closest structural relatives in the MolGod.org collection are Benzyl chloromethyl ether (CAS 3587-60-8) and benzyl alcohol (CAS 100-51-6); printing them side by side makes a quick compare-and-contrast exercise. On the printed model, students can point to the C-Cl bond. MolGod.org builds and releases these models at no cost for chemistry teaching. Teachers: hand out printed copies and ask students to rebuild the structural formula from the model.
