Chloromethyl benzoate (CMB) is an organic compound that is widely used in scientific research. It acts as a chlorinating agent and is used in the synthesis of many compounds. It reacts with nucleophiles, such as alcohols, amines, and other compounds, to form a chloromethyl group. This group can then be used to create other compounds, for example, dyes, perfumes, and polymers. Chloromethyl benzoate may act to have anti-inflammatory and anticonvulsant effects. In addition, it has an inhibitory effect on the enzyme cyclooxygenase-2, which is involved in the production of inflammatory mediators.
