methyl 4-fluoro-3-methoxybenzoate

Description:
Methyl 4-fluoro-3-methoxybenzoate, with the CAS number 74385-37-8, is an organic compound belonging to the class of benzoates. It features a methoxy group (-OCH3) and a fluorine atom attached to a benzene ring, which contributes to its unique chemical properties. This compound is typically characterized by its aromatic structure, which enhances its stability and reactivity. Methyl 4-fluoro-3-methoxybenzoate is generally a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic nature. The presence of the fluorine atom can influence its electronic properties, making it useful in various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions and as a potential intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as with all chemical substances, to ensure proper precautions are taken.
