Benzoic acid, 4-chloro-3-hydroxy-, methyl ester

Description:

Benzoic acid, 4-chloro-3-hydroxy-, methyl ester, with the CAS number 166272-81-7, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group derived from benzoic acid. This compound features a benzoic acid backbone with a chlorine atom at the para position and a hydroxyl group at the meta position relative to the ester group. It is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in organic solvents, reflecting its hydrophobic characteristics due to the aromatic ring. The presence of the hydroxyl group contributes to its potential for hydrogen bonding, which can influence its solubility and reactivity. This compound may exhibit biological activity, making it of interest in various fields, including pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its synthesis and applications can involve reactions typical of esters, such as hydrolysis and transesterification. As with many chlorinated compounds, it is essential to consider its environmental impact and toxicity, particularly in relation to its persistence and bioaccumulation potential.
