2,3,6-Trichlorobenzoic acid

Description:
2,3,6-Trichlorobenzoic acid is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of three chlorine atoms substituted on the benzene ring at the 2, 3, and 6 positions relative to the carboxylic acid group. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline solid and is known for its relatively low solubility in water, while being more soluble in organic solvents. It has a melting point that is generally in the moderate range, indicative of its crystalline nature. The presence of chlorine atoms enhances its reactivity and can influence its biological activity, making it of interest in various fields, including agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals. 2,3,6-Trichlorobenzoic acid can be synthesized through chlorination of benzoic acid and is often used as an intermediate in the synthesis of other chemical compounds. Additionally, it exhibits properties that may be toxic or harmful, necessitating careful handling and disposal in laboratory and industrial settings.
