3-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)propanoic acid

Description:
3-(2,6-Dichlorophenyl)propanoic acid, with the CAS number 51656-68-9, is an organic compound characterized by its propanoic acid backbone substituted with a 2,6-dichlorophenyl group. This compound typically appears as a solid at room temperature and is known for its potential applications in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The presence of the dichlorophenyl moiety contributes to its hydrophobic characteristics, influencing its solubility and reactivity. The carboxylic acid functional group (-COOH) imparts acidic properties, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, such as esterification and amidation. Additionally, the compound may exhibit biological activity, making it of interest in medicinal chemistry. Its synthesis often involves the introduction of the dichlorophenyl group onto the propanoic acid framework through electrophilic aromatic substitution or similar methodologies. Safety and handling precautions should be observed, as with many organic compounds, due to potential toxicity and environmental impact.
