CAS 52873-25-3
:Benzoic acid, 4-chloro-2-hydroxy-, ethyl ester
Description:
Benzoic acid, 4-chloro-2-hydroxy-, ethyl ester, also known by its CAS number 52873-25-3, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group derived from benzoic acid. This compound features a chloro substituent at the para position and a hydroxy group at the ortho position relative to the carboxylic acid moiety, which influences its chemical reactivity and physical properties. Typically, it appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive aromatic odor. The presence of the chloro and hydroxy groups can enhance its solubility in polar solvents while maintaining some hydrophobic characteristics due to the aromatic ring. This compound is often used in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of various pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other fine chemicals. Its reactivity can be attributed to the electron-withdrawing nature of the chloro group, which can affect the acidity of the carboxylic acid and the nucleophilicity of the hydroxy group. Safety data should be consulted for handling and usage, as with all chemical substances.
