4-Bromo-2-methyl-benzeneacetic acid

Description:
4-Bromo-2-methyl-benzeneacetic acid, also known by its CAS number 853796-39-1, is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of a bromine atom and a methyl group on a benzene ring. This compound features a benzene ring substituted with a bromine atom at the para position and a methyl group at the ortho position relative to the carboxylic acid functional group. The presence of these substituents influences its chemical reactivity and physical properties, such as solubility and boiling point. Typically, compounds like this exhibit moderate polarity due to the carboxylic acid group, which can engage in hydrogen bonding, enhancing solubility in polar solvents. Additionally, the bromine substituent can impart unique reactivity, making it useful in various synthetic applications, including medicinal chemistry and material science. The compound's structure suggests potential applications in pharmaceuticals, where modifications of aromatic acids are common for developing biologically active molecules. As with many organic compounds, safety and handling precautions should be observed due to potential toxicity or reactivity.
