Organic Halides

3-Fluoro-4-methoxybenzoic acid is a dipolar molecule with a fluorine atom. It has been synthesized experimentally and the yields are determined by the experimental conditions. 3-Fluoro-4-methoxybenzoic acid has two isomers, which can be differentiated by their resonances. The molecule also has an asymmetric C3(CF)2Cl group in the middle of its structure that can rotate freely.

2,3,5-Trichlorobenzaldehyde is a chemical compound that has been shown to have anticancer and apoptotic effects. It inhibits the growth of bacteria by chelating iron ions and inhibiting bacterial dna synthesis. 2,3,5-Trichlorobenzaldehyde has also been shown to inhibit the growth of cancer cells in culture in an experimental study. This chemical has been used as a substrate for nmr spectroscopy to study its functional groups and radical scavenging activities. 2,3,5-Trichlorobenzaldehyde can be synthesized from phenacyl chloride and benzaldehyde in the presence of hydrogen chloride gas. The carbonyl group in 2,3,5-trichlorobenzaldehyde may cause metabolic disorders such as diabetes mellitus or hyperglycemia.
