5-Bromo-2-methylbenzeneacetic acid

Description:
5-Bromo-2-methylbenzeneacetic acid, also known by its CAS number 854646-94-9, is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of a bromine atom and a methyl group on a benzene ring, along with an acetic acid functional group. This compound typically exhibits a white to off-white crystalline appearance and is soluble in organic solvents, while its solubility in water may vary. The bromine substituent can influence its reactivity, making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The presence of the carboxylic acid group contributes to its acidity and potential for forming salts or esters. Additionally, the compound may exhibit biological activity, which can be explored in various chemical and biological assays. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper precautions are taken due to potential hazards associated with brominated compounds.
