CAS 328-69-8

3-Hydroxy-5-(trifluoromethyl)benzoic acid

Description:

3-Hydroxy-5-(trifluoromethyl)benzoic acid, with the CAS number 328-69-8, is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of a hydroxyl group and a trifluoromethyl group attached to a benzene ring. This compound typically exhibits a white to off-white crystalline appearance and is soluble in organic solvents, with limited solubility in water. The trifluoromethyl group enhances its lipophilicity and can influence its reactivity and biological activity. The hydroxyl group contributes to its acidity, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, including esterification and nucleophilic substitution. This compound is often utilized in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other fine chemicals. Its unique electronic properties, imparted by the trifluoromethyl group, can also affect its interaction with biological systems, making it of interest in medicinal chemistry. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this compound, as with many fluorinated substances, due to potential toxicity and environmental concerns.
