4-ethoxybenzamide; CAS No.: 55836-71-0; 4-ethoxybenzamide. PROPERTIES: 4-ethoxybenzamide presents as white to off-white crystalline needles with a faint aromatic odor. Its molecular formula is C9H9NO2, corresponding to a molecular weight of approximately 167.17 g/mol. The compound features a melting point in the range of 102-105 C and exhibits moderate solubility in hot water while being more soluble in organic solvents such as methanol, ethyl acetate, and dimethylformamide. It demonstrates stability under normal laboratory conditions but should be protected from prolonged exposure to moisture and high temperatures. Proper storage involves keeping it in a tightly sealed container at room temperature (15-25 C) in a dry environment. Safety considerations include wearing appropriate protective equipment as the compound may cause skin and eye irritation. Inhalation of dust should be avoided, and in case of accidental exposure, thorough washing with water and medical consultation is advised. The substance is classified as harmful if swallowed (GHS classification). APPLICATIONS: 4-ethoxybenzamide functions as a versatile intermediate in the synthesis of liquid crystal materials, where its amide and ethoxy groups contribute to mesomorphic properties and thermal stability (Journal of Materials Chemistry). In medicinal chemistry, 4-ethoxybenzamide serves as a building block for creating bioactive molecules, including anti-inflammatory agents and antimicrobial compounds, through its ability to participate in nucleophilic aromatic substitution reactions and amide bond formation (Journal of Medicinal Chemistry). Additionally, it finds application in the preparation of dyes and pigments, where its molecular structure enables color development and lightfastness in various applications (Dyes and Pigments). The compound is also employed in analytical chemistry as a derivatizing agent for spectrophotometric and chromatographic assays, providing enhanced detection capabilities for certain analytes (Analytical Chemistry).
