• Descripción: 3-Bromo-4-hydroxy-5-methoxybenzoic acid is an organic compound that is a chlorinated derivative of benzoic acid. It can be synthesized by the reaction between benzene and sodium hypochlorite in the presence of a nuclear reactor. The reaction produces 3-bromo-4,5-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid which reacts with chlorine to produce 3,4,5-trichlorobenzoic acid. This compound can then be oxidized to form 3-bromo-4,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid or chlorinated to form 3,4,5,6 -tetrachlorobenzoic acid. The latter compound has been used as a precursor for herbicides such as Benlate and Clorox.
