1-chloro-2-methoxy-4-methylbenzene

Description:
1-Chloro-2-methoxy-4-methylbenzene, also known as p-chloro-methoxy-toluene, is an aromatic compound characterized by the presence of a chlorine atom, a methoxy group (-OCH3), and a methyl group (-CH3) attached to a benzene ring. This compound features a chloro substituent at the para position relative to the methoxy group and a methyl group at the meta position. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinct aromatic odor. The presence of the chlorine atom contributes to its reactivity, making it useful in various chemical syntheses, including the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The methoxy group enhances its solubility in organic solvents while influencing its electronic properties. Additionally, 1-chloro-2-methoxy-4-methylbenzene may exhibit moderate toxicity, necessitating careful handling and appropriate safety measures during use. Its applications can extend to research in organic chemistry and material science, where it may serve as an intermediate in the synthesis of more complex molecules.
