Description:2-Chloro-4-iodobenzoic acid is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of both chlorine and iodine substituents on the benzene ring. The chlorine atom is located at the second position, while the iodine atom is at the fourth position relative to the carboxylic acid group. This compound typically appears as a solid and is known for its moderate solubility in organic solvents, while being less soluble in water due to the hydrophobic nature of the aromatic ring and the bulky halogen substituents. It exhibits properties typical of halogenated benzoic acids, including potential applications in organic synthesis and as a reagent in various chemical reactions. The presence of halogens can influence the compound's reactivity, making it useful in substitution reactions. Additionally, 2-chloro-4-iodobenzoic acid may exhibit biological activity, which can be of interest in pharmaceutical research. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks due to its halogenated nature.
