Ethyl 4-bromo-3-methylbenzoate

Description:

Ethyl 4-bromo-3-methylbenzoate is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group, which is derived from benzoic acid. It features a bromine atom and a methyl group attached to the aromatic ring, specifically at the 4 and 3 positions, respectively. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pleasant 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. Ethyl 4-bromo-3-methylbenzoate is often used in organic synthesis as an intermediate for the preparation of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its reactivity can be attributed to the presence of the bromine atom, which can participate in nucleophilic substitution reactions. Safety data indicates that, like many brominated compounds, it should be handled with care due to potential toxicity and environmental concerns. Proper storage and disposal methods are essential to mitigate any risks associated with its use.
