2,5-dichloro-4-methylbenzoic acid

Description:
2,5-Dichloro-4-methylbenzoic acid is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of two chlorine substituents and a methyl group on a benzoic acid framework. Its molecular structure features a benzene ring with a carboxylic acid (-COOH) group, which contributes to its acidic properties. The chlorine atoms are located at the 2 and 5 positions relative to the carboxylic acid, while the methyl group is positioned at the 4 position. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid and is sparingly soluble in water, but more soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone. It exhibits moderate to high stability under standard conditions, although it may undergo hydrolysis or other reactions under specific circumstances. 2,5-Dichloro-4-methylbenzoic acid is used in various applications, including as an intermediate in organic synthesis and in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its properties make it a subject of interest in both industrial and research settings.
