Methyl 2-benzoylbenzoate Usage And Synthesis

Chemical PropertiesWhite or yellowish granule crystals, soluble in alcohol and alkali solution, almost insoluble in water when precipitated in acid.
UsesMethyl 2-benzoylbenzoate is used as an anti-ultraviolet absorber and a preservative for food and beverages.
PreparationMethyl-2-benzoylbenzoate can be synthesized from the reaction between corresponding 2-substituted benzoic acid and thionyl chloride in methanol.
DefinitionChEBI: Methyl 2-benzoylbenzoate is a member of benzophenones.
General DescriptionMethyl-2-benzoylbenzoate is a 2-acylarylcarboxylate. It can undergo asymmetric transfer hydrogenation reaction in propanol in the presence of a Ruthenium catalyst. Methyl-2-benzoylbenzoate is formed as one of the reaction products during the reaction between methyl benzoate and lithium 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidide (LiTMP) at -117°C.
Flammability and ExplosibilityNon flammable
