2-Iodo-3-methylbenzoic acid

Description:

2-Iodo-3-methylbenzoic acid is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of both an iodine atom and a methyl group on a benzoic acid framework. The iodine substituent is located at the second position, while the methyl group is at the third position relative to the carboxylic acid functional group. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white solid and is sparingly soluble in water, but more soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone. Its molecular structure contributes to its unique chemical reactivity, making it useful in various organic synthesis applications, particularly in the preparation of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The presence of the iodine atom can also enhance its reactivity in nucleophilic substitution reactions. Additionally, 2-iodo-3-methylbenzoic acid can exhibit interesting properties such as potential antimicrobial activity, which is a subject of research in medicinal chemistry. Proper handling and storage are essential due to its chemical nature and potential hazards associated with iodine-containing compounds.
