Description:1-Benzyloxy-4-iodobenzene, with the CAS number 19578-68-8, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of both a benzene ring and an iodine substituent. It features a benzyloxy group (-O-Ph-CH2-) attached to the para position of the iodophenyl ring, making it a derivative of iodobenzene. This compound is typically a solid at room temperature and is known for its moderate solubility in organic solvents such as ethanol and dichloromethane, while being less soluble in water due to its hydrophobic nature. The presence of the iodine atom contributes to its reactivity, particularly in nucleophilic substitution reactions, while the benzyloxy group can serve as a leaving group under certain conditions. 1-Benzyloxy-4-iodobenzene is often utilized in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of more complex molecules and in various coupling reactions. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this compound, as iodine can be hazardous, and proper storage conditions should be maintained to ensure stability.
