2-Propenoic acid, 3-(6-methoxy-2-benzofuranyl)-, ethyl ester

Description:

2-Propenoic acid, 3-(6-methoxy-2-benzofuranyl)-, ethyl ester, also known by its CAS number 88221-06-1, is an organic compound characterized by its structure, which includes a propenoic acid moiety and a benzofuran derivative. This compound typically exhibits properties associated with esters, such as being a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pleasant odor. It is soluble in organic solvents and may have limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic benzofuran component. The presence of the methoxy group enhances its reactivity and may influence its biological activity, making it of interest in various fields, including pharmaceuticals and materials science. The compound may participate in polymerization reactions, given its propenoic acid functionality, which can lead to the formation of larger macromolecules. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper laboratory practices.
