Product Name: Benzoic acid, 3-bromo-2-fluoro-4-methyl-, methyl ester
Chinese Name: 3-溴-2-氟-4-甲基苯甲酸甲酯
Molecular Formula: C₉H₈BrFO₂
Molecular Weight: 247.06 g/mol
Structure: This compound is a methyl ester derivative of benzoic acid, with a bromine atom at the 3-position, a fluorine atom at the 2-position, and a methyl group at the 4-position of the aromatic ring. The carboxylic acid group is esterified with a methyl group.
3-Bromo-2-fluoro-4-methylbenzoic acid methyl ester is a halogenated aromatic ester commonly used as an intermediate in organic synthesis. The ester functionality provides ease of hydrolysis or transformation into amides or acids, while the halogen atoms allow for diverse cross-coupling and substitution reactions. It is particularly useful in pharmaceutical and agrochemical development.
Intermediate in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients and fine chemicals.
Starting material for further functionalization in organic synthesis.
Building block in the preparation of substituted benzoic acid derivatives.
Hydrolysis to obtain the corresponding benzoic acid derivative.
Utilized in palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions at the brominated site.
Serves as a precursor for the synthesis of bioactive molecules containing halogenated aromatic esters.
