2-Thiophenecarboxylic acid, 3-hydroxy-5-methyl-, methyl ester

Description:
2-Thiophenecarboxylic acid, 3-hydroxy-5-methyl-, methyl ester, commonly referred to as methyl 3-hydroxy-5-methylthiophene-2-carboxylate, is an organic compound characterized by its thiophene ring structure, which is a five-membered aromatic ring containing sulfur. This compound features a carboxylic acid functional group that has been esterified with methanol, resulting in a methyl ester. The presence of a hydroxyl group at the 3-position and a methyl group at the 5-position on the thiophene ring contributes to its unique chemical properties. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. The compound is soluble in organic solvents and may exhibit moderate polarity due to the functional groups present. Its applications may include use in organic synthesis, pharmaceuticals, and as an intermediate in the production of other chemical compounds. As with many thiophene derivatives, it may also exhibit interesting electronic and photophysical properties, making it of interest in materials science and organic electronics.
