METHYL 2,3-DIFLUOROBENZOATE

Description:
Methyl 2,3-difluorobenzoate is an aromatic ester characterized by the presence of a methyl ester group attached to a benzene ring that has two fluorine substituents at the 2 and 3 positions. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive aromatic odor. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. The presence of fluorine atoms enhances its chemical stability and can influence its reactivity, making it useful in various chemical syntheses and applications. Methyl 2,3-difluorobenzoate can be utilized in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and as an intermediate in organic synthesis. Safety data indicates that, like many fluorinated compounds, it should be handled with care, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested. Proper safety protocols should be followed when working with this substance in a laboratory setting.
