2,6-Difluoro-3-methylbenzoic acid

Description:
2,6-Difluoro-3-methylbenzoic acid is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of two fluorine atoms and a methyl group on a benzoic acid framework. The molecular structure features a benzene ring substituted at the 2 and 6 positions with fluorine atoms and at the 3 position with a methyl group, contributing to its unique chemical properties. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in organic solvents, with limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. The presence of the carboxylic acid functional group (-COOH) imparts acidic properties, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, such as esterification and amidation. Additionally, the fluorine substituents can influence the compound's reactivity and stability, often enhancing its lipophilicity and altering its interaction with biological systems. 2,6-Difluoro-3-methylbenzoic acid may find applications in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and materials science due to its distinctive chemical characteristics.
