:2-Thiophenecarboxylic acid, 4-hydroxy-, methyl ester
Description:
2-Thiophenecarboxylic acid, 4-hydroxy-, methyl ester, with the CAS number 5118-04-7, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a thiophene ring, a carboxylic acid functional group, and a methoxy group. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. It exhibits moderate solubility in polar solvents such as water and is more soluble in organic solvents like ethanol and acetone. The presence of the hydroxyl group contributes to its potential as a hydrogen bond donor, influencing its reactivity and interactions with other molecules. This compound may be used in various applications, including pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and as an intermediate in organic synthesis. Its chemical properties, such as acidity and reactivity, are influenced by the electron-withdrawing nature of the thiophene ring and the carboxylic acid moiety, making it a versatile building block in synthetic chemistry. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances.
