Description

2-Chlorophenol is an organic compound that is used as a disinfectant and antiseptic. It has been shown to adsorb onto activated carbon and other organic matter in wastewater treatment facilities, where it is degraded by the intramolecular hydrogenation of 2-chlorophenol to 2-hydroxybenzoic acid.
This reaction can be catalyzed by sodium citrate, which acts as a proton donor. The kinetics of this transformation can be described using the pseudo-first order rate law. 2-Chlorophenol also regulates transcriptional activity through binding to DNA at specific sites. This binding can be detected using solid phase microextraction techniques on copper chloride or surfactant sodium dodecyl. The reaction mechanism for the conversion of 2-chlorophenol to 2-hydroxybenzoic acid involves intermolecular hydrogen bonding with a proton donor that leads to the oxidation of the substrate.
