Since carboxylic acid functional groups are electron withdrawing, during an electrophilic aromatic substitution reaction of nitration, substituents are directed to a meta position which explains this regiochemistry. A less efficient route involves nitration of methyl benzoate, followed by hydrolysis. [3]
Methyl benzoate is an organic compound. It is an ester with the chemical formula C 6 H 5 COOCH 3, sometimes abbreviated as PhCO 2 Me, where Ph and Me are phenyl and methyl, respectively. Its structure is C 6 H 5 −C(=O)−O−CH 3. It is a colorless liquid that is poorly soluble in water, but miscible with organic solvents.
3-Nitrobenzoic acid is a precursor to 3-aminobenzoic acid, which in turn is used to prepare some dyes. It can be prepared by nitration of benzoic acid. It also can be prepared by treating benzaldehyde under nitration conditions, a process that initially converts the aldehyde to the acid.
The reactivity of a functional group can be modified by other functional groups nearby. Functional group interconversion can be used in retrosynthetic analysis to plan organic synthesis. A functional group is a group of atoms in a molecule with distinctive chemical properties, regardless of the other atoms in the molecule. The atoms in a ...
The structure of an organic nitro compound. In organic chemistry, nitro compounds are organic compounds that contain one or more nitro functional groups (−NO 2).The nitro group is one of the most common explosophores (functional group that makes a compound explosive) used globally.
Different ways of representing a methyl group (highlighted in blue) In organic chemistry, a methyl group is an alkyl derived from methane, containing one carbon atom bonded to three hydrogen atoms, having chemical formula CH 3 (whereas normal methane has the formula CH 4). In formulas, the group is often abbreviated as Me.
In organic chemistry, a methoxy group is the functional group consisting of a methyl group bound to oxygen. This alkoxy group has the formula R−O−CH 3. On a benzene ring, the Hammett equation classifies a methoxy substituent at the para position as an electron-donating group, but as an electron-withdrawing group if at the meta position.
