:

Benzoic acid, 2-(cyanomethyl)-, ethyl ester

Description:
Benzoic acid, 2-(cyanomethyl)-, ethyl ester, with the CAS number 19821-21-7, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group and the presence of both a benzoic acid moiety and a cyanomethyl group. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and temperature. 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 the cyanomethyl group introduces a polar character, which can influence its reactivity and interactions with other molecules. Benzoic acid derivatives are often utilized in various applications, including as intermediates in organic synthesis, in the production of pharmaceuticals, and in the formulation of agrochemicals. The compound may exhibit biological activity, making it of interest in medicinal chemistry. Safety data should be consulted for handling and potential hazards, as with all chemical substances.
