Description

4-Phenoxyphenylacetic acid is a ligand that is used as a catalyst. It has been shown to catalyze the hydrochlorination of 4-ethoxybenzene to 4-chlorobenzene. 4-Phenoxyphenylacetic acid binds to metals and forms complexes with them, which increases its catalytic activity. The stability of the complex is also increased by the presence of heteroatoms such as chlorine or bromine on the ring system. Ligands that interact with metals are more electronegative than those that do not, and this can affect their stability in the complex.
