2-Methoxy-5-nitrobenzoic acid

Description:

2-Methoxy-5-nitrobenzoic acid is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of both a methoxy group and a nitro group on the benzene ring. The methoxy group (-OCH₃) is an electron-donating substituent, while the nitro group (-NO₂) is an electron-withdrawing group, which can influence the compound's reactivity and acidity. This compound typically appears as a solid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents. It exhibits moderate acidity due to the carboxylic acid functional group, which can donate a proton in solution. The presence of the nitro group can enhance the compound's electrophilic character, making it useful in various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions. Additionally, 2-Methoxy-5-nitrobenzoic acid may have applications in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and as an intermediate in organic synthesis. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as nitro compounds can be sensitive and potentially hazardous.
