Ethyl 2-Hydroxy-4-fluorobenzoate

Description:
Ethyl 2-Hydroxy-4-fluorobenzoate, with the CAS number 1737-21-9, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of benzoates. It features a benzoic acid derivative where a hydroxyl group (-OH) and a fluorine atom are substituted on the aromatic ring. This compound is typically characterized by its moderate polarity due to the presence of the hydroxyl group, which can engage in hydrogen bonding, enhancing its solubility in polar solvents. The fluorine substituent can influence the compound's reactivity and stability, often imparting unique electronic properties. Ethyl 2-Hydroxy-4-fluorobenzoate is commonly used in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. Its physical properties, such as melting point, boiling point, and density, can vary based on purity and environmental conditions. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper precautions are taken due to potential toxicity or reactivity.
