methyl 2-bromo-3-nitrobenzoate

Description:

Methyl 2-bromo-3-nitrobenzoate is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure, which includes a benzene ring substituted with both a bromine atom and a nitro group, as well as a methoxycarbonyl group (the ester functional group). Its molecular formula is C9H8BrN2O3, indicating the presence of carbon, hydrogen, bromine, nitrogen, and oxygen atoms. This compound typically appears as a yellow to brown solid and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone, but less soluble in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. Methyl 2-bromo-3-nitrobenzoate is often utilized in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, owing to its reactivity and ability to undergo nucleophilic substitution reactions. Additionally, the presence of both the bromine and nitro groups makes it a valuable intermediate for further chemical transformations. As with many halogenated compounds, it is important to handle this substance with care, considering potential toxicity and environmental impact.
