2,4,6-Trifluorophenylacetic acid

Description:

2,4,6-Trifluorophenylacetic acid is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of a trifluoromethyl group at the 2, 4, and 6 positions of the phenyl ring, along with an acetic acid functional group. This compound is notable for its strong electronegative fluorine atoms, which significantly influence its chemical reactivity and physical properties, such as increased acidity compared to non-fluorinated analogs. The trifluorophenyl moiety enhances lipophilicity, making it potentially useful in pharmaceutical applications. It is typically a solid at room temperature and may exhibit moderate solubility in organic solvents. The presence of the carboxylic acid group allows for hydrogen bonding, which can affect its interactions in biological systems. Additionally, 2,4,6-Trifluorophenylacetic acid may serve as a building block in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as fluorinated compounds can pose specific environmental and health risks.

CAS: 209991-63-9

2,4,6-Trifluorophenylacetic acid is a fluorinated phenylacetic acid that has been shown to inhibit the growth of the fungus Botrytis cinerea. It does this by disrupting the conformation of microtubules and inhibiting cell division. This compound has been synthesized in analogy with other known phenylacetic acids and its structure was confirmed through single-crystal x-ray diffraction studies. The heteroaryl groups on 2,4,6-Trifluorophenylacetic acid disrupt the microtubule polymerization process by binding to tubulin subunits. The fluorine atom also binds to the pyridine ring in this molecule to form an electron-deficient heterocycle.
