Methyl 5-(chloromethyl)-2-furoate

Description:

Methyl 5-(chloromethyl)-2-furoate is an organic compound characterized by its furan ring structure, which is a five-membered aromatic ring containing oxygen. This compound features a chloromethyl group (-CH2Cl) at the 5-position of the furan, contributing to its reactivity and potential applications in organic synthesis. The presence of the ester functional group (-COOCH3) indicates that it is a methyl ester, which can influence its solubility and reactivity in various chemical reactions. Methyl 5-(chloromethyl)-2-furoate is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor. It is soluble in organic solvents and may have limited solubility in water. The chloromethyl group makes it a useful intermediate in the synthesis of other chemical compounds, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. As with many chlorinated compounds, it should be handled with care due to potential toxicity and environmental concerns. Proper safety measures should be observed when working with this substance in a laboratory setting.
