CAS 122-88-3: 4-Chlorophenoxyacetic acid
Description:4-Chlorophenoxyacetic acid (4-CPA) is an organic compound with the chemical formula C8H7ClO3. It is characterized by a phenoxy group attached to a chlorinated aromatic ring and a carboxylic acid functional group. This compound appears as a white to off-white crystalline solid and is soluble in organic solvents, while exhibiting limited solubility in water. 4-CPA is primarily used as a herbicide, particularly in the control of broadleaf weeds in various agricultural settings. Its mode of action involves mimicking the plant hormone auxin, leading to uncontrolled growth and eventual plant death. Additionally, 4-Chlorophenoxyacetic acid has applications in biochemical research, particularly in studies related to plant growth regulation. Safety considerations include potential toxicity to aquatic organisms and the need for proper handling to avoid skin and eye irritation. As with many chlorinated compounds, environmental persistence and bioaccumulation are important factors to consider in its use and regulation.
