:4-Acetyl-3-chlorobenzoic acid
Description:
4-Acetyl-3-chlorobenzoic acid is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of both an acetyl group and a chlorine atom on the benzene ring. Its molecular structure features a benzoic acid core, with the acetyl group (-COCH₃) located at the para position relative to the carboxylic acid group and the chlorine atom at the meta position. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white solid and is soluble in organic solvents, while its solubility in water is limited. It exhibits moderate melting and boiling points, typical of substituted benzoic acids. The presence of the acetyl group can influence its reactivity, making it a potential candidate for various chemical reactions, including acylation and esterification. Additionally, the chlorine substituent can enhance the compound's electrophilic character, making it useful in synthetic organic chemistry. 4-Acetyl-3-chlorobenzoic acid may also have applications in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and as an intermediate in the synthesis of other chemical compounds.
