What is 2-(Benzoyloxymethyl)benzoic acid?
The Uses of 2-(Benzoyloxymethyl)benzoic acid
2-(Benzoyloxymethyl)benzoic acid can be used to synthesize:
- 2-(Benzoyloxymethyl)benzoyl chloride (BMBC) by reacting with oxalyl chloride. BMBC intermediate is utilized for the preparation of dimethyl 2-(benzoyloxymethyl)benzoylphosphonate by treating with trimethyl phosphite.
- 2-Benzoyloxymethylbenzoic acid 4-nitrophenyl ester by reaction with 4-nitrophenol via 2-benzoyloxymethylbenzoyl chloride formation.
- 2-[2-(Benzoyloxymethyl)benzamido]acetamide by treating with glycinamide and followed by addition of PCl3.
