Methyl 2-amino-3,4,5,6-tetrafluorobenzoate

Abstract

In the title compound, C8H5F4NO2, synthesized by esterification of 2,3,4,5-tetrafluoroanthranilic acid with methanol, an intramolecular amine N—H...Ocarbonyl hydrogen bond is present, while intermolecular N—H...O hydrogen bonds produce chains in the crystal, which extend along the b-axis direction.
