5-Chloro-2-methoxyphenol is a phenolic compound that is used in wastewater treatment. It can be synthesized from 2-chloro-5-hydroxyphenol and sodium hydroxide. 5-Chloro-2-methoxyphenol has been shown to inhibit the growth of Pseudomonas strains, including P. aeruginosa, P. putida, and P. fluorescens. This inhibition may be due to its ability to release Mn2+ ions from the bacteria's cell wall by oxidation reactions. The bacterial strain also needs a carbon source for 5-chloro-2-methoxyphenol to be effective against it and it is not active against radiation, oxidation products, or hplc analysis.BR>BR>
