Benzoic acid, 4-(fluoromethyl)-, methyl ester

Description:
Benzoic acid, 4-(fluoromethyl)-, methyl ester, also known by its CAS number 64299-49-6, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a benzoic acid moiety with a fluoromethyl group and a methyl ester functional group. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and temperature. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether, but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. The presence of the fluoromethyl group can impart unique chemical properties, including increased lipophilicity and potential biological activity. Benzoic acid derivatives are often used in various applications, including as preservatives, flavoring agents, and in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals. The compound may exhibit moderate toxicity, and appropriate safety measures should be taken when handling it. Its reactivity can be influenced by the ester and fluoromethyl groups, making it a valuable intermediate in organic synthesis and medicinal chemistry.
