1,2,3-Benzenetricarboxylic acid

Description:

1,2,3-Benzenetricarboxylic acid, also known as trimellitic acid, is an aromatic tricarboxylic acid characterized by its three carboxyl (-COOH) functional groups attached to a benzene ring. This compound is typically a white crystalline solid at room temperature and is soluble in water, reflecting its polar nature due to the presence of multiple carboxylic acid groups. It has a melting point that varies depending on purity and form, and it is known for its ability to form esters and anhydrides, making it useful in the synthesis of various polymers and plasticizers. Trimellitic acid is also employed in the production of resins, coatings, and adhesives, owing to its reactivity and ability to enhance the properties of materials. Additionally, it can serve as a building block in organic synthesis and is studied for its potential applications in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Safety considerations include handling it with care, as it can cause irritation to the skin and eyes.
