Octanoic acid, 2-(4-chlorophenoxy)-

Description:

Octanoic acid, 2-(4-chlorophenoxy)-, also known by its CAS number 119061-17-5, is an organic compound characterized by its octanoic acid backbone, which is an eight-carbon saturated fatty acid. The presence of the 4-chlorophenoxy group indicates that a chlorinated phenyl ether is attached to the second carbon of the octanoic acid chain. This structure imparts unique properties, including potential hydrophobicity due to the long hydrocarbon chain and increased reactivity from the chlorophenoxy moiety. The compound may exhibit antimicrobial properties and is of interest in various applications, including pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its solubility profile is likely influenced by both the fatty acid and aromatic components, affecting its behavior in biological systems and industrial processes. As with many chlorinated compounds, considerations regarding environmental impact and toxicity are essential, necessitating careful handling and assessment in research and application contexts.
