4-chloro-N-(2-methoxyphenyl)benzamide

Description:

4-Chloro-N-(2-methoxyphenyl)benzamide, with the CAS number 7508-80-7, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure, which includes a benzamide moiety substituted with a chloro group and a methoxyphenyl group. This compound typically exhibits a white to off-white crystalline appearance. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and dimethyl sulfoxide, but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic components. The presence of the chloro substituent can influence its reactivity and biological activity, potentially enhancing its lipophilicity. The methoxy group contributes to the compound's electronic properties, which may affect its interactions in biological systems. 4-Chloro-N-(2-methoxyphenyl)benzamide may be of interest in pharmaceutical research, particularly in the development of compounds with specific biological activities, such as anti-inflammatory or analgesic properties. As with many organic compounds, safety precautions should be taken when handling this substance, as it may pose health risks if ingested or inhaled.
