1,4-Benzenedicarboxylic acid, 2-(bromomethyl)-, dimethyl ester

Description:
1,4-Benzenedicarboxylic acid, 2-(bromomethyl)-, dimethyl ester, commonly known as dimethyl 2-bromomethylterephthalate, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure and ester functional groups. It features a benzene ring with two carboxylate groups (as esters) at the 1 and 4 positions, and a bromomethyl group at the 2 position. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its form and purity. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone but has limited solubility in water. The presence of the bromomethyl group makes it a potential intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, the compound may exhibit reactivity typical of brominated compounds, such as participating in nucleophilic substitution reactions. Safety data indicates that it should be handled with care, as it may pose health risks upon exposure. Proper storage and handling protocols are essential to ensure safety in laboratory and industrial settings.
