CAS 14299-51-5: 2,4,5-trichloromandelic acid

Description: 2,4,5-Trichloromandelic acid is an organic compound characterized by its chlorinated aromatic structure. It features three chlorine atoms substituted at the 2, 4, and 5 positions of the aromatic ring, along with a carboxylic acid functional group. This compound is typically a white to off-white crystalline solid, exhibiting moderate solubility in polar solvents such as water and alcohols. Its molecular structure contributes to its potential applications in various fields, including pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The presence of multiple chlorine atoms enhances its reactivity and may influence its biological activity. Additionally, 2,4,5-trichloromandelic acid can be synthesized through specific chlorination reactions of mandelic acid derivatives. As with many chlorinated compounds, it is essential to handle it with care due to potential environmental and health impacts, including toxicity and persistence in the environment. Proper safety measures should be observed when working with this substance in laboratory or industrial settings.
