Compound Q&A
What are the physical and chemical properties of 2-Bromo-4-(2-methyl-2-propanyl)benzoic acid (CAS: 6332-96-3)?
Answer
2-Bromo-4-(2-methyl-2-propanyl)benzoic acid is a white crystalline solid with a molecular weight of approximately 256.04 g/mol. It has a low solubility in water (less than 1 g/L at 20°C) and is more soluble in organic solvents like ethanol and acetone. Chemically, it is relatively stable but can react with bases to form the corresponding sodium salt. It is not highly reactive under normal conditions but should be handled with care due to its halogen content.
