2-METHYL-5-BROMOBENZOIC ACID

Description:

2-Methyl-5-bromobenzoic acid is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of a bromine atom and a methyl group attached to a benzene ring. The molecular structure features a carboxylic acid functional group (-COOH) that imparts acidic properties, making it soluble in polar solvents like water and alcohols. The bromine substituent at the 5-position and the methyl group at the 2-position influence the compound's reactivity and physical properties, such as melting and boiling points. This compound is typically used in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, or other fine chemicals. Its reactivity can be attributed to the electron-withdrawing nature of the bromine atom, which can facilitate electrophilic substitution reactions. Additionally, the presence of both the bromine and carboxylic acid groups can enhance the compound's ability to participate in hydrogen bonding, affecting its solubility and interaction with biological systems. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances.
