methyl 2-fluoro-3-methylbenzoate

Description:

Methyl 2-fluoro-3-methylbenzoate, with the CAS number 586374-04-1, is an organic compound belonging to the class of benzoate esters. It features a methyl ester functional group attached to a benzoic acid derivative, specifically substituted with a fluorine atom at the 2-position and a methyl group at the 3-position of the aromatic ring. This compound is characterized by its relatively low molecular weight and moderate polarity due to the presence of both the ester and aromatic functionalities. Methyl 2-fluoro-3-methylbenzoate is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pleasant odor, making it potentially useful in fragrance applications. Its chemical properties include stability under standard conditions, but it may undergo hydrolysis in the presence of strong acids or bases. The presence of the fluorine atom can influence its reactivity and solubility, often enhancing its lipophilicity. As with many organic compounds, safety precautions should be taken when handling this substance, as it may pose health risks if ingested or inhaled.
