2,6-dichloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzoic acid

Description:
2,6-Dichloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzoic acid is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of two chlorine atoms and a trifluoromethyl group attached to a benzoic acid structure. This compound features a benzene ring with substituents at the 2 and 6 positions (the dichloro groups) and at the 4 position (the trifluoromethyl group). The presence of these electronegative substituents significantly influences its chemical properties, including increased acidity due to the electron-withdrawing effects of the halogens. It is typically a solid at room temperature and may exhibit low solubility in water but higher solubility in organic solvents. This compound is of interest in various fields, including agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals, due to its potential biological activity and utility in synthetic applications. Additionally, its unique structure may impart specific reactivity patterns, making it a valuable intermediate in organic synthesis. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this compound, as it may pose environmental and health risks.
