2-Bromo-6-methylbenzoic acid Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Uses

2-Bromo-6-methylbenzoic acid belongs to the benzoic acid derivatives and is mainly used as an intermediate in organic synthesis and pharmaceutical chemistry. It can be used to prepare preservatives, dyes, bactericides, and fragrances.

Description

2-Bromo-6-methylbenzoic acid is a fine white powder used as an intermediate in synthesizing pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and dyes. It can also be used as a building block for organic compounds in academic research. The product should be stored in a cool, dry place away from heat or ignition sources.

Chemical Properties

2-Bromo-6-methylbenzoic acid is solid at room temperature and pressure. In organic synthetic transformations, the bromine atom in position 2 of the benzene ring can be converted to an aryl or alkyl group by Suzuki coupling or to a boron unit by boronization. The carboxyl group in the structure can be converted to a hydroxyl group by reduction of borane and to an ester group under acidic or basic conditions.
