:

2-Thiophenecarboxylic acid, 5-acetyl-, methyl ester

Description:
2-Thiophenecarboxylic acid, 5-acetyl-, methyl ester, also known by its CAS number 4101-81-9, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a thiophene ring, which is a five-membered aromatic heterocycle containing sulfur. This compound features a carboxylic acid functional group that is esterified with methanol, resulting in a methyl ester. The acetyl group at the 5-position of the thiophene ring contributes to its reactivity and potential applications in organic synthesis. Typically, compounds of this nature exhibit moderate solubility in organic solvents and may have limited solubility in water due to their hydrophobic thiophene structure. The presence of both the carboxylic acid and acetyl functionalities suggests potential for various chemical reactions, including esterification and acylation. Additionally, the compound may exhibit biological activity, making it of interest in pharmaceutical research. As with many organic compounds, handling should be done with care, observing appropriate safety protocols to mitigate any risks associated with exposure.
