2-Nitro-5-(trifluoromethyl)benzoic acid

Description:
2-Nitro-5-(trifluoromethyl)benzoic acid is an aromatic compound characterized by the presence of a nitro group and a trifluoromethyl group attached to a benzoic acid structure. The nitro group (-NO2) is a strong electron-withdrawing group, which can influence the acidity and reactivity of the compound, while the trifluoromethyl group (-CF3) is also electron-withdrawing and contributes to the compound's lipophilicity and potential biological activity. This compound typically exhibits a solid state at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents. Its chemical properties may include moderate acidity due to the carboxylic acid functional group, and it may participate in various chemical reactions such as nucleophilic substitutions or electrophilic aromatic substitutions. The presence of both electron-withdrawing groups can enhance the compound's reactivity in certain contexts, making it of interest in synthetic organic chemistry and potentially in pharmaceutical applications. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as compounds with nitro and trifluoromethyl groups can pose specific hazards.
