1-Chloro-3-methoxy-2-methylbenzene

Description:
1-Chloro-3-methoxy-2-methylbenzene, also known as o-chloro-methoxy-toluene, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure, which includes a benzene ring substituted with a chlorine atom, a methoxy group (-OCH3), and a methyl group (-CH3). The presence of these substituents influences its physical and chemical properties. Typically, this compound appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive aromatic odor. It is moderately soluble in organic solvents and has limited solubility in water due to the hydrophobic nature of the benzene ring. The chlorine atom introduces reactivity, making it a potential candidate for nucleophilic substitution reactions. Additionally, the methoxy group can participate in electrophilic aromatic substitution, affecting the reactivity and orientation of further substitutions on the benzene ring. Safety considerations include handling it in a well-ventilated area and using appropriate personal protective equipment, as it may pose health risks upon exposure. Overall, 1-chloro-3-methoxy-2-methylbenzene is of interest in various chemical syntheses and applications in organic chemistry.
