2,3,5,6-Tetrafluoro-p-toluic acid

Description:
2,3,5,6-Tetrafluoro-p-toluic acid is a fluorinated aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of four fluorine atoms attached to a toluic acid structure. Its molecular formula is C8H4F4O2, indicating a relatively low molecular weight. The compound features a para-substituted toluic acid backbone, with fluorine atoms located at the 2, 3, 5, and 6 positions of the aromatic ring, which significantly influences its chemical properties, including increased electronegativity and altered reactivity compared to non-fluorinated analogs. This fluorination enhances its lipophilicity and thermal stability, making it useful in various applications, including pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The presence of the carboxylic acid functional group contributes to its acidity and potential for forming hydrogen bonds, which can affect solubility in different solvents. Additionally, 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-p-toluic acid may exhibit unique behavior in chemical reactions due to the electron-withdrawing effects of the fluorine atoms, impacting its reactivity and interaction with other chemical species.
