Benzoic acid, 5-fluoro-2-methyl-, methyl ester

Description:
Benzoic acid, 5-fluoro-2-methyl-, methyl ester, identified by CAS number 175278-29-2, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of benzoic acid derivatives. This compound features a benzoic acid core with a methyl ester functional group, which enhances its solubility in organic solvents. The presence of a fluorine atom at the 5-position and a methyl group at the 2-position of the aromatic ring contributes to its unique chemical properties, potentially influencing its reactivity and biological activity. Typically, such compounds exhibit moderate to high stability under standard conditions, but their reactivity can vary based on the substituents present. Benzoic acid derivatives are often utilized in various applications, including pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and as intermediates in organic synthesis. The methyl ester form may also exhibit different solubility and volatility characteristics compared to its acid counterpart, making it useful in specific formulations. As with many organic compounds, safety data should be consulted to understand its handling and potential hazards.
