3-CHLORO-2,2-DICHLOROMETHYL PROPIONIC ACID

Description:
3-Chloro-2,2-dichloromethyl propionic acid, with the CAS number 17831-70-8, is a chlorinated organic compound that belongs to the class of carboxylic acids. This substance is characterized by the presence of multiple chlorine atoms, which significantly influence its chemical properties and reactivity. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its form and purity. The compound is known for its potential applications in agrochemicals, particularly as a herbicide, due to its ability to disrupt plant growth processes. Its structure features a propionic acid backbone, with chlorine substituents that enhance its biological activity and stability. As with many chlorinated compounds, it may exhibit toxicity and environmental persistence, necessitating careful handling and regulation. Additionally, it is important to consider its solubility in organic solvents and limited solubility in water, which can affect its behavior in various chemical environments. Safety data sheets should be consulted for specific handling and exposure guidelines.
