Propanoic acid, 2-chloro-3-methoxy-, methyl ester

Description:
Propanoic acid, 2-chloro-3-methoxy-, methyl ester, also known by its CAS number 36997-03-2, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group, which is derived from propanoic acid. This compound features a chloro substituent at the second carbon and a methoxy group at the third carbon of the propanoic acid chain. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor. The presence of the chlorine atom introduces unique reactivity, making it a potential candidate for various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions. The methoxy group contributes to its solubility in organic solvents and may influence its reactivity and interaction with biological systems. This compound is of interest in synthetic organic chemistry and may have applications in pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. As with many chlorinated compounds, it is essential to handle it with care due to potential toxicity and environmental concerns. Proper safety measures should be observed when working with this substance in laboratory settings.
