Description:
Methyl-4-iodo-3-hydroxybenzoate, with the CAS number 157942-12-6, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of benzoates. It features a benzoic acid derivative structure, characterized by the presence of a methoxy group (-OCH3), a hydroxy group (-OH), and an iodine atom attached to the aromatic ring. This compound typically exhibits moderate solubility in organic solvents and may have limited solubility in water due to the hydrophobic nature of the aromatic system. The presence of the iodine atom can impart unique reactivity, making it useful in various chemical synthesis applications, including as a precursor for further functionalization.
