CAS 18895-01-7: 5-Iodo-3-thiophenecarboxylic acid

Description: 5-Iodo-3-thiophenecarboxylic acid is an organic compound characterized by the presence of both an iodo substituent and a carboxylic acid functional group attached to a thiophene ring. The thiophene ring, a five-membered aromatic heterocycle containing sulfur, contributes to the compound's unique electronic properties and reactivity. The iodine atom introduces significant electronegativity, which can influence the compound's reactivity in various chemical reactions, such as nucleophilic substitutions or coupling reactions. The carboxylic acid group (-COOH) provides acidic properties and can participate in hydrogen bonding, enhancing solubility in polar solvents. This compound is of interest in organic synthesis and materials science, particularly for applications in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, due to its potential biological activity and ability to serve as a building block for more complex molecules. Additionally, the presence of the thiophene moiety may impart interesting optical and electronic properties, making it suitable for use in organic electronics or as a dye.
