2-(2-Chlorophenoxy)propionic acid

Description:
2-(2-Chlorophenoxy)propionic acid, also known as chlorophenoxypropionic acid, is an organic compound characterized by its propionic acid structure substituted with a 2-chlorophenoxy group. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline solid and is soluble in organic solvents while exhibiting limited solubility in water. It is primarily recognized for its application as a herbicide, particularly in the control of broadleaf weeds in various agricultural settings. The presence of the chlorophenoxy moiety contributes to its biological activity, allowing it to mimic plant growth hormones, which disrupts normal plant growth processes. Additionally, this compound may exhibit moderate toxicity to aquatic organisms, necessitating careful handling and application. Its chemical properties include a specific melting point and boiling point, which are influenced by the molecular structure and intermolecular interactions. As with many chemical substances, safety data sheets should be consulted for information on handling, storage, and potential hazards associated with 2-(2-Chlorophenoxy)propionic acid.
