CAS 329-59-9: Methyl 4-fluoro-3-nitrobenzoate

Description: Methyl 4-fluoro-3-nitrobenzoate, with the CAS number 329-59-9, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of benzoate esters. It features a methyl ester functional group attached to a benzoic acid derivative, which is further substituted with a fluoro group at the para position and a nitro group at the meta position relative to the ester. This compound is typically a yellow to orange solid at room temperature and is known for its aromatic properties. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. Methyl 4-fluoro-3-nitrobenzoate is often used in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its reactivity is influenced by the electron-withdrawing nature of the nitro and fluoro substituents, which can affect its electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if ingested or inhaled.
