3-Amino-5-chlorobenzoic acid

Description:
3-Amino-5-chlorobenzoic acid is an aromatic amino acid derivative characterized by the presence of an amino group (-NH2) and a chlorine atom (Cl) on a benzoic acid structure. The amino group is located at the meta position relative to the carboxylic acid group (-COOH), while the chlorine atom is situated at the para position. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline solid and is soluble in polar solvents such as water and alcohols, owing to its polar functional groups. It exhibits properties typical of both amino acids and carboxylic acids, including the ability to participate in hydrogen bonding and act as a weak acid. 3-Amino-5-chlorobenzoic acid is often used in organic synthesis, pharmaceuticals, and as an intermediate in the production of dyes and agrochemicals. Its reactivity can be influenced by the presence of the amino and chlorine substituents, making it a valuable compound in various chemical applications. Safety data should be consulted for handling and potential hazards associated with this substance.
