CAS 108052-76-2: 4-Bromomethyl-benzoic acid tert-butyl ester
Description:4-Bromomethyl-benzoic acid tert-butyl ester is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group, which is derived from benzoic acid. The presence of a bromomethyl group indicates that a bromine atom is attached to a methyl group, which is further connected to the benzene ring. The tert-butyl ester moiety contributes to the compound's hydrophobic characteristics, enhancing its solubility in organic solvents while limiting its solubility in water. This compound is typically used in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. Its structure suggests potential reactivity due to the bromine atom, which can participate in nucleophilic substitution reactions. Additionally, the presence of the carboxylic acid derivative indicates that it can undergo hydrolysis to regenerate the corresponding acid. Safety data should be consulted, as brominated compounds can pose health risks, and appropriate handling and disposal measures should be observed in laboratory settings.
