Cyclohexanecarboxylic acid, 4-formyl-, methyl ester

Description:
Cyclohexanecarboxylic acid, 4-formyl-, methyl ester, also known by its CAS number 37942-76-0, is an organic compound characterized by its cyclohexane ring structure with a carboxylic acid group and a formyl group at the 4-position, along with a methyl ester functional group. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and temperature. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic cyclohexane ring. The presence of the formyl group introduces reactivity, making it susceptible to nucleophilic attack, while the ester functionality can undergo hydrolysis under acidic or basic conditions. Cyclohexanecarboxylic acid derivatives are often utilized in organic synthesis and can serve as intermediates in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other fine chemicals. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as it may pose health risks if ingested or inhaled.
