CAS 3704-28-7

Benzoic acid, 2-(methylthio)-, methyl ester

Description:

Benzoic acid, 2-(methylthio)-, methyl ester, with the CAS number 3704-28-7, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group derived from benzoic acid and methanol, with a methylthio substituent at the ortho position. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive aromatic odor. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic characteristics. The presence of the methylthio group imparts unique chemical properties, including potential reactivity in nucleophilic substitution reactions. Benzoic acid derivatives are often utilized in various applications, including as preservatives, flavoring agents, and in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals. Safety data indicates that, like many organic compounds, it should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes. Proper storage in a cool, dry place away from incompatible substances is recommended to maintain stability and prevent degradation.
