Description

Methyl 3-amino-5-chlorobenzoate (3ACB) is a heterocyclic compound that contains a nitrogen atom and a heteroatom. It is an important intermediate in the synthesis of other pharmaceuticals, such as 4-aminobenzoyl chloride. 3ACB reacts with nucleophiles at the bridgehead nitrogen to form bicyclic products. The reactivity of this molecule also focuses on the two adjacent carbonyls, which can be oxidized to form ketones. 3ACB has been used in drug research to highlight how drugs react with different parts of the molecule and how these reactions can be manipulated to produce desired results.
