3-Chloro-2-methoxybenzaldehyde

Description:

3-Chloro-2-methoxybenzaldehyde is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure, featuring a benzaldehyde functional group with a chlorine atom and a methoxy group attached to the aromatic ring. The presence of the chlorine atom at the meta position and the methoxy group at the ortho position influences its reactivity and physical properties. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on the temperature and purity. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. 3-Chloro-2-methoxybenzaldehyde is often used in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, owing to its electrophilic nature and ability to participate in nucleophilic substitution reactions. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested, and appropriate personal protective equipment should be used.
