[1,1'-Biphenyl]-3-carboxylicacid, 3'-chloro-4'-methyl-

Description:

[1,1'-Biphenyl]-3-carboxylic acid, 3'-chloro-4'-methyl- is an organic compound characterized by its biphenyl structure, which consists of two phenyl rings connected by a single bond. This compound features a carboxylic acid functional group (-COOH) at the 3-position of one phenyl ring, and a chloro (-Cl) and methyl (-CH3) substituent at the 3' and 4' positions, respectively, on the adjacent phenyl ring. The presence of these functional groups contributes to its chemical reactivity and potential applications in various fields, including pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The compound is likely to exhibit moderate solubility in organic solvents and may have limited solubility in water due to the hydrophobic nature of the biphenyl structure. Additionally, the chlorine and methyl substituents can influence the compound's electronic properties and steric hindrance, affecting its interactions in chemical reactions. Safety data and handling precautions should be consulted, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper usage and minimize risks.
