5-Fluoro-2-methylbenzoic acid

Description:

5-Fluoro-2-methylbenzoic acid is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of a fluorine atom and a methyl group on the benzene ring. Its molecular structure features a benzoic acid core, which consists of a carboxyl group (-COOH) attached to a benzene ring. The fluorine atom is positioned at the 5th carbon and the methyl group at the 2nd carbon of the ring, influencing the compound's reactivity and physical properties. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in organic solvents, with limited solubility in water. It exhibits acidic properties due to the carboxylic acid functional group, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, including esterification and nucleophilic substitution. The presence of the fluorine atom can enhance the compound's biological activity and lipophilicity, making it of interest in pharmaceutical research and development. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as with all chemical substances, to ensure proper precautions are taken.
