Description:Benzoic acid, 4-chloro-3-cyano- is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of a benzoic acid moiety with a chloro group and a cyano group attached to the benzene ring. The chloro group is located at the para position relative to the carboxylic acid, while the cyano group is positioned at the meta position. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid and is known for its potential applications in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its molecular structure contributes to its reactivity, particularly in electrophilic substitution reactions. The presence of both the chloro and cyano groups can influence the acidity and overall chemical behavior of the compound, making it a subject of interest in medicinal chemistry and materials science. Additionally, it may exhibit specific solubility characteristics in various solvents, which can be important for its practical applications in laboratory and industrial settings.
