Benzoic acid, 4-fluoro-2-methyl-, methyl ester

Description:
Benzoic acid, 4-fluoro-2-methyl-, methyl ester, with the CAS number 174403-69-1, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group derived from benzoic acid. This compound features a benzoic acid backbone with a methyl ester group and substitutions at the 4 and 2 positions, specifically a fluorine atom and a methyl group, respectively. The presence of the fluorine atom can influence the compound's reactivity and polarity, potentially enhancing its solubility in organic solvents. Typically, esters like this one exhibit pleasant, fruity odors and are often used in flavoring and fragrance applications. The methyl ester form can also be involved in various chemical reactions, including hydrolysis and transesterification. In terms of physical properties, it is likely to be a colorless to pale yellow liquid, with a moderate boiling point and melting point, depending on the specific molecular interactions. As with many organic compounds, safety data should be consulted to understand its handling and potential hazards.
