CAS 99334-10-8

Benzenepropanoic acid,4-chloro-a-oxo-, ethyl ester

Description:

Benzenepropanoic acid, 4-chloro-α-oxo-, ethyl ester, with the CAS number 99334-10-8, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of esters. It features a benzene ring substituted with a propanoic acid moiety, which is further modified by the presence of a chloro group at the para position and an α-oxo group. The ethyl ester functional group indicates that the compound is an ester formed from the reaction of the corresponding acid with ethanol. This compound is likely to exhibit characteristics typical of aromatic compounds, such as stability and potential for electrophilic substitution reactions. The presence of the chloro substituent can influence its reactivity and solubility, while the ester group may impart certain properties like volatility and lower boiling points compared to the corresponding acid. Additionally, the compound may have applications in organic synthesis or as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals, although specific applications would depend on further research and analysis.
