'''Sebacoyl chloride''' (or '''sebacoyl dichloride''') is a di-[[acyl chloride]], with formula C<sub>10</sub>H<sub>16</sub>Cl<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub>.
Sebacoyl chloride is a light-yellow liquid with a pungent odor, soluble in hydrocarbons and ethers.
Sebacoyl chloride is corrosive; like all [[acyl chloride]]s, it hydrolyzes in water rapidly, evolving [[hydrogen chloride]].
Sebacoyl chloride can be reacted with [[hexamethylenediamine]], to give the polymer, [[nylon|nylon-6,10]].
