4-chloro-1,2-dimethoxy-benzene

Description:

4-Chloro-1,2-dimethoxybenzene, also known as 4-chloro-o-dimethoxybenzene, is an aromatic compound characterized by the presence of a chlorine atom and two methoxy groups (-OCH3) attached to a benzene ring. The chlorine substituent is located at the para position relative to one of the methoxy groups, while the other methoxy group is positioned ortho to it. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its state at room temperature. It is known for its moderate solubility in organic solvents and limited solubility in water due to the hydrophobic nature of the benzene ring. The presence of the methoxy groups can influence its reactivity and polarity, making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, 4-chloro-1,2-dimethoxybenzene may exhibit biological activity, which can be explored in various chemical and biological research applications. Proper handling and safety measures should be observed due to its potential toxicity and environmental impact.
