Benzoic acid, 5-formyl-2-hydroxy-, methyl ester

Description:
Benzoic acid, 5-formyl-2-hydroxy-, methyl ester, also known by its CAS number 41489-76-3, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group derived from benzoic acid. This compound features a hydroxyl group (-OH) and a formyl group (-CHO) attached to the benzene ring, contributing to its reactivity and solubility properties. It is typically a white to off-white solid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone, but less soluble in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. The presence of the hydroxyl group imparts mild acidity, while the formyl group can participate in various chemical reactions, including oxidation and condensation. This compound is of interest in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other fine chemicals. Its safety profile should be considered, as with many organic compounds, and appropriate handling procedures should be followed to mitigate any potential hazards.
