CAS 320-31-0: 4-Bromo-2-(Trifluoromethyl) Benzoic Acid
Description:4-Bromo-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzoic acid is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of a bromine atom and a trifluoromethyl group attached to a benzoic acid structure. This compound features a benzene ring with a carboxylic acid (-COOH) functional group, which contributes to its acidic properties. The bromine atom, located at the para position relative to the carboxylic acid, and the trifluoromethyl group at the ortho position significantly influence the compound's reactivity and polarity. The trifluoromethyl group is known for its electron-withdrawing properties, which can enhance the acidity of the carboxylic acid. This compound is typically used in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. Its physical properties include a relatively high melting point and solubility in polar solvents, making it suitable for various chemical reactions. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this substance, as it may pose health risks if ingested or inhaled.
