methyl 3-chloro-4-cyanobenzoate

Description:
Methyl 3-chloro-4-cyanobenzoate, with the CAS number 214759-66-7, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of benzoates. It features a benzoate structure where a methyl ester group is attached to a benzene ring that has both a chlorine atom and a cyano group in the para and meta positions, respectively. This compound is typically characterized by its aromatic nature, which contributes to its stability and reactivity. The presence of the cyano group (-CN) introduces a strong electron-withdrawing effect, enhancing the compound's reactivity in nucleophilic substitution reactions. The chlorine atom also serves as a leaving group, making it a potential candidate for further chemical transformations. Methyl 3-chloro-4-cyanobenzoate is often utilized in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. Its physical properties, such as solubility and melting point, can vary based on the specific conditions and purity of the sample. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances.
