ethyl 3-iodopropanoate

Description:

Ethyl 3-iodopropanoate is an organic compound classified as an ester, specifically an iodinated propanoate. It features a propanoate backbone with an ethyl group and an iodine atom attached to the third carbon of the chain. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic fruity odor, indicative of its ester nature. Ethyl 3-iodopropanoate is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and diethyl ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic ethyl group. It is primarily used in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of various iodinated compounds and as a reagent in chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions. The presence of the iodine atom makes it a useful intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. As with many iodinated compounds, it should be handled with care due to potential toxicity and environmental concerns. Proper safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment, are recommended when working with this substance.
