1,2,3-Benzenetricarboxylic acid hydrate

Description:

1,2,3-Benzenetricarboxylic acid hydrate, also known as trimellitic acid hydrate, is an organic compound characterized by its three carboxylic acid functional groups attached to a benzene ring. This compound typically appears as a white crystalline solid and is soluble in water, which is attributed to the presence of the carboxylic acid groups that can form hydrogen bonds with water molecules. The hydrate form indicates that it contains water molecules in its crystal structure, which can influence its physical properties and stability. It is often used in the synthesis of various chemical intermediates, plasticizers, and resins. The presence of multiple carboxylic acid groups allows for the formation of salts and esters, making it versatile in chemical reactions. Additionally, its structure contributes to its potential applications in the fields of materials science and pharmaceuticals. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper precautions are taken.
