Description:
Methyl 4-bromo-3-methylbenzoate, with the CAS number 148547-19-7, is an organic compound belonging to the class of benzoate esters. It features a methyl group and a bromine atom substituted on the aromatic ring, which contributes to its chemical reactivity and physical properties. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic aromatic odor. It is moderately soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. Methyl 4-bromo-3-methylbenzoate can be used in various applications, including as an intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its bromine substituent can participate in electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions, making it a valuable building block in synthetic chemistry.
