CAS 1129-28-8

Methyl 3-(bromomethyl)benzoate

Description:

Methyl 3-(bromomethyl)benzoate, with the CAS number 1129-28-8, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group and a bromomethyl substituent on the aromatic ring. It features a methyl ester derived from benzoic acid, where the bromomethyl group is positioned at the meta position relative to the ester group. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and temperature. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. Methyl 3-(bromomethyl)benzoate is often used in organic synthesis as an intermediate for the preparation of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its reactivity is influenced by the presence of the bromomethyl group, which can participate in nucleophilic substitution reactions. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested, and appropriate protective equipment should be used.
