2-Bromo-4-methylbenzoic acid

Description:
It appears there is a mix-up with the CAS number provided. The CAS number 7697-27-0 corresponds to nitric acid, not 2-Bromo-4-methylbenzoic acid. However, 2-Bromo-4-methylbenzoic acid is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of a bromine atom and a methyl group on a benzoic acid structure. This compound typically exhibits a white to off-white crystalline appearance and is soluble in organic solvents, with limited solubility in water. It has a molecular formula of C9H9BrO2 and features a carboxylic acid functional group (-COOH), which imparts acidic properties. The bromine substituent can influence the compound's reactivity and potential applications in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, the presence of the methyl group can affect the compound's steric and electronic properties, making it a useful intermediate in various chemical reactions. Always handle such substances with care, following appropriate safety protocols.
