3-Iodo-5-trifluoromethylbenzoic acid

Description:
3-Iodo-5-trifluoromethylbenzoic acid is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of an iodo group and a trifluoromethyl group on a benzene ring. The iodo substituent is located at the meta position (3-position) relative to the carboxylic acid group, while the trifluoromethyl group is situated at the para position (5-position). This compound exhibits typical properties of benzoic acids, including acidity due to the carboxylic functional group, which can donate a proton in solution. The presence of the trifluoromethyl group enhances the compound's lipophilicity and can influence its reactivity and interaction with biological systems. Additionally, the iodo substituent can provide opportunities for further chemical modifications, making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis. The compound is likely to be solid at room temperature and may have applications in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, or materials science due to its unique electronic and steric properties. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as halogenated compounds can pose health risks.
