2,3-Difluoro-5-hydroxybenzoic acid

Description:
2,3-Difluoro-5-hydroxybenzoic acid is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of two fluorine atoms and a hydroxyl group on a benzoic acid framework. The fluorine substituents are located at the 2 and 3 positions, while the hydroxyl group is at the 5 position, contributing to its unique chemical properties. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in polar solvents due to the presence of the hydroxyl group, which can engage in hydrogen bonding. The fluorine atoms enhance the compound's lipophilicity and can influence its reactivity and biological activity. As a benzoic acid derivative, it may exhibit acidic properties, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, including esterification and nucleophilic substitution. Its specific applications may vary, but compounds of this nature are often explored in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals for their potential biological activities. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with any chemical substance.
