4-Chloro-2,3-dimethylbenzoic acid

Description:
4-Chloro-2,3-dimethylbenzoic acid is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of a benzoic acid core substituted with a chlorine atom and two methyl groups. The chlorine atom is located at the para position relative to the carboxylic acid group, while the methyl groups are positioned at the 2 and 3 positions on the benzene ring. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline solid and is sparingly soluble in water but more soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone. It exhibits acidic properties due to the carboxylic acid functional group, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, including esterification and amidation. The presence of the chlorine and methyl substituents can influence its reactivity and biological activity, making it of interest in pharmaceutical and agrochemical research. Additionally, its structural features may contribute to its potential applications in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of other chemical compounds.
