Description:
Methyl 5-chloro-2-ethoxybenzoate, with the CAS number 75230-37-4, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of benzoates. It features a benzoate structure where a methyl ester group is attached to a benzoic acid derivative, specifically substituted with a chlorine atom at the 5-position and an ethoxy group at the 2-position. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. It is characterized by its aromatic properties, which contribute to its potential applications in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The presence of the ethoxy group enhances its solubility in organic solvents, while the chlorine substituent can influence its reactivity and biological activity. As with many organic compounds, safety precautions should be observed when handling this substance, as it may pose health risks if ingested or inhaled. Proper storage and disposal methods are essential to mitigate environmental impact.
