Chlorotoluene is a group of three isomeric chemical compounds. They (ortho-chlorotoluene, meta-chlorotoluene, and para-chlorotoluene) consist of a disubstituted benzene ring with one chlorine atom and one methyl group. Properties The isomers differ in the location of the chlorine, but have the same chemical formula. All have very similar boiling points, although p-chlorotoluene has a much higher melting point due to a more tightly-packed crystal structure. | Chlorotoluene isomers | | General |

Benzyl chloride is an isomer, which has a chlorine substituted for one of the hydrogens of toluene's methyl group, and it is sometimes named α-chlorotoluene. References- [https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/npg/npgd0135.html CDC - NIOSH Pocket Guide to Chemical Hazards - o-Chlorotoluene]
