Ethyl 5-chloro-2-fluorobenzoate

Description:
Ethyl 5-chloro-2-fluorobenzoate is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group, which is derived from benzoic acid. It features a benzene ring substituted with both a chlorine atom at the 5-position and a fluorine atom at the 2-position, along with an ethyl ester group. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and temperature. It is known for its moderate polarity due to the presence of halogen substituents, which can influence its reactivity and solubility in various solvents. Ethyl 5-chloro-2-fluorobenzoate is often utilized in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, due to its ability to participate in nucleophilic substitution reactions. Safety data indicates that, like many halogenated compounds, it should be handled with care, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested. Proper storage and disposal methods are essential to mitigate environmental impact.
