6-METHOXY-BENZO[B]THIOPHENE-2-CARBOXYLIC ACID - Introduction

6-Methoxy-benzo [B] thiophene-2-carboxylic acid, also known as MTSBTCA, is an organic compound. The following is a description of the nature, use, preparation and safety information of the MTSBTCA:

1. nature:
-Appearance: colorless or light yellow crystal
-Molecular formula: C14H11O3S
-Molecular weight: 266.31g/mol
-melting point: 173-175 ℃
-Solubility: Soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and dichloromethane

2. use:
- MTSBTCA is a photosensitive compound that can be used as a raw material for photoelectric materials, coatings and dyes.
-It can also be used as a catalyst and activating reagent in organic synthesis reactions.

3. Preparation method:
-The preparation method of MTSBTCA usually includes two steps. First, benzothiophene-2-carbonyl chloride is obtained by formylating benzothiophene and chloride. Then, 6-methoxy-benzo [B] thiophene-2-carboxylic acid chloride was obtained by reaction with methanol. Finally, the MTSBTCA was obtained by treatment with aqueous sodium carbonate.

4. Safety Information:
-The MTSBTCA is generally safe under normal conditions of use. However, due to its high melting point and irritation, care should be taken to prevent contact with skin and eyes.
-In case of contact with MTSBTCA, rinse the affected area immediately with plenty of clean water. Seek medical assistance if necessary.
-When storing, keep the MTSBTCA in a dry, cool place and away from fire and oxidizing agents.
