3-Chloro-4-fluoro-2-methylbenzoic acid

Description:
3-Chloro-4-fluoro-2-methylbenzoic acid is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of a benzoic acid core substituted with a chlorine atom at the 3-position, a fluorine atom at the 4-position, and a methyl group at the 2-position. This compound typically appears as a solid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents, while its solubility in water may be limited due to the hydrophobic nature of the aromatic ring. The presence of both halogen substituents (chlorine and fluorine) can influence its reactivity, making it a potential candidate for various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions and coupling reactions. The carboxylic acid functional group imparts acidic properties, allowing it to participate in acid-base reactions. Additionally, the compound may exhibit interesting biological activities, making it relevant in pharmaceutical research. Its unique substitution pattern can also affect its physical properties, such as melting point and boiling point, as well as its interaction with biological systems.
