Benzoic acid, 2-azido-,methyl ester

Description:
Benzoic acid, 2-azido-, methyl ester, with the CAS number 16714-23-1, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of both an azido group and an ester functional group. This compound features a benzoic acid backbone, where the carboxylic acid group is converted into a methyl ester, enhancing its solubility in organic solvents. The azido group (-N3) introduces unique reactivity, making it a valuable intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of various nitrogen-containing compounds. The presence of the azido group can also impart interesting properties, such as potential for click chemistry applications. Typically, this compound is a solid at room temperature and may exhibit moderate stability under standard conditions, although it should be handled with care due to the potential reactivity of the azido group. Its applications may extend to pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and materials science, where it can serve as a precursor for further chemical transformations. As with all chemicals, proper safety protocols should be followed when handling this substance.
