| Methyl 2-benzoylbenzoate Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | White or yellowish granule crystals, soluble in alcohol and alkali solution, almost insoluble in water when precipitated in acid. |
| Uses | Methyl 2-benzoylbenzoate is used as an anti-ultraviolet absorber and a preservative for food and beverages. |
| Preparation | Methyl-2-benzoylbenzoate can be synthesized from the reaction between corresponding 2-substituted benzoic acid and thionyl chloride in methanol. |
| General Description | Methyl-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 Explosibility | Nonflammable |
