2-Thiophenecarboxylic acid, 4,5-bis(chloromethyl)-, methyl ester

Description:
2-Thiophenecarboxylic acid, 4,5-bis(chloromethyl)-, methyl ester, with CAS number 7353-89-1, is an organic compound characterized by its thiophene ring structure, which is a five-membered aromatic heterocycle containing sulfur. This compound features a carboxylic acid functional group that has been esterified with methanol, resulting in a methyl ester. The presence of two chloromethyl groups at the 4 and 5 positions of the thiophene ring enhances its reactivity, making it useful in various chemical syntheses. The compound is typically a solid at room temperature and may exhibit moderate solubility in organic solvents. Its chemical properties are influenced by the electron-withdrawing nature of the chloromethyl groups, which can affect its acidity and reactivity in nucleophilic substitution reactions. Additionally, the thiophene moiety contributes to its potential applications in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and materials science, particularly in the development of functionalized polymers and dyes. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as chlorinated compounds can pose health risks.
