Description

Ethyl 2-phenylbenzoate (CAS No. 19926-49-9) is a high-purity aromatic ester with the molecular formula C₁₅H₁₄O₂. This compound, also known as ethyl biphenyl-2-carboxylate, is a versatile intermediate widely used in organic synthesis, pharmaceuticals, and material science. Its well-defined structure, featuring a phenyl group adjacent to the ester functionality, makes it valuable for constructing complex molecules. Our product is rigorously tested to ensure ≥98% purity (GC), with trace impurities minimized for research and industrial applications. Available in quantities from grams to kilograms, it is supplied in sealed, light-resistant containers under inert gas to maintain stability. Ideal for Suzuki couplings, esterification studies, and as a precursor for liquid crystals or OLED materials.

Application

Ethyl 2-phenylbenzoate serves as a key building block in pharmaceutical synthesis, particularly for nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) analogs. Its biphenyl core is utilized in materials science for developing fluorescent dyes and liquid crystalline compounds. Researchers also employ it as a model substrate for studying ester hydrolysis kinetics and transition-metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions.
