2-Iodo-4,5-dimethylbenzoic acid

Description:

2-Iodo-4,5-dimethylbenzoic acid is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of an iodine atom and two methyl groups on a benzoic acid framework. The iodine substituent is located at the second position, while the methyl groups are positioned at the fourth and fifth positions of the benzene ring. This compound typically exhibits a white to off-white crystalline appearance and is soluble in organic solvents, but its solubility in water is limited due to the hydrophobic nature of the aromatic ring and the bulky methyl groups. The presence of the carboxylic acid functional group imparts acidic properties, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, such as esterification and amidation. Additionally, the iodine atom can enhance the compound's reactivity in nucleophilic substitution reactions. 2-Iodo-4,5-dimethylbenzoic acid is utilized in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this compound, as with many halogenated organic substances.
