if not, www.google.com?
IF NOT (as this is now the case - I did the searching)...then I have come to the conclusion that you cannot spell. This was my first instinct. Chloroethyl perhaps? ClCH2CH2-R where R is whatever your chloroethyl is attached to. Maybe you meant chloroethane? ClCH2CH3? I really don't know.
 
Thank you for finding me this information, you were right, I can't spell. The chemical was chloroethyl. Your answer is again, greatly appriciated, and you will be given full credit for the discovery.
 
hahah
Full credit for the discovery? That's alright, there's really no need for that. Just send me a whore as a sign of appreciation.
