Ethyl 4-bromomethylbenzoate

Description:

Ethyl 4-bromomethylbenzoate, with the CAS number 26496-94-6, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group and the presence of a bromomethyl substituent on the aromatic ring. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a sweet, fruity odor. The compound is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. Ethyl 4-bromomethylbenzoate is often used in organic synthesis as an intermediate for the preparation of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its reactivity is influenced by the bromomethyl group, which can participate in nucleophilic substitution reactions, making it a valuable building block in chemical synthesis. Additionally, 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.
