1,2,3-Benzenetricarboxylic acid hydrate

Description:
1,2,3-Benzenetricarboxylic acid hydrate, also known as trimellitic acid hydrate, is an organic compound characterized by its three carboxylic acid functional groups attached to a benzene ring. This compound typically appears as a white crystalline solid and is soluble in water, which is attributed to the presence of the carboxylic acid groups that can engage in hydrogen bonding. The hydrate form indicates that it contains water molecules in its structure, which can influence its physical properties and reactivity. It is commonly used in the production of plasticizers, resins, and as a chemical intermediate in various industrial applications. The presence of multiple carboxylic acid groups allows for the formation of salts and esters, making it versatile in chemical synthesis. Additionally, its ability to form complexes with metal ions can be utilized in coordination chemistry. Safety data indicates that, like many organic acids, it should be handled with care to avoid skin and eye irritation.
