2-Chloro-5-methoxybenzoic acid

Description:

2-Chloro-5-methoxybenzoic acid is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of a chloro group and a methoxy group on a benzoic acid framework. Its molecular structure features a chlorine atom at the second position and a methoxy group at the fifth position of the benzene ring, contributing to its unique chemical properties. 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 acidic properties due to the carboxylic acid functional group, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, such as esterification and amidation. The presence of the chloro and methoxy substituents can influence its reactivity and biological activity, making it of interest in pharmaceutical and agrochemical research. Additionally, 2-Chloro-5-methoxybenzoic acid can serve as an intermediate in the synthesis of more complex organic compounds. Safety data should be consulted for handling and usage, as with any chemical substance.

2-Chloro-5-methoxybenzoic acid (2CMB) is a copper chelator that has been shown to have antagonistic properties against microglia cells. 2CMB is synthesized from 2,5-dichlorobenzoic acid and methoxylamine. It has been shown to inhibit the synthesis of inflammatory mediators in rat spinal cord microglia cells by inhibiting the activity of polyphosphoric acid, anions and additives. 2CMB also has a high affinity for chloride ions and can be used as a tracer to measure chloride profiles. 2CMB reacts with copper ions at a slow rate and can be used as an indicator for the presence of microglia cells.
