Methyl 2-chloro-3-iodo-4-methylbenzoate

Description:
Methyl 2-chloro-3-iodo-4-methylbenzoate is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure, which includes a methyl ester functional group. It features a benzene ring substituted with a chlorine atom at the 2-position, an iodine atom at the 3-position, and a methyl group at the 4-position. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and temperature. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and dichloromethane but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. The presence of halogen substituents (chlorine and iodine) can influence its reactivity, making it a potential candidate for various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions and coupling reactions. Methyl 2-chloro-3-iodo-4-methylbenzoate may be used in synthetic organic chemistry, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals, due to its functional groups that can participate in further chemical transformations. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as halogenated compounds can pose health risks.
