2-Chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzoic acid - Introduction

acid is an organic compound with the chemical formula C8H4ClF3O2.

Nature:
acid is a colorless to light yellow solid with a special aromatic odor. It is soluble in some organic solvents such as methanol, chloroform and ethanol at room temperature, and slightly soluble in water.

Use:
calcium is commonly used as a pesticide and pharmaceutical intermediate. It can be used as a raw material for pesticides, fungicides and herbicides, and also for the synthesis of some drug molecules.

Method:
fluorotoluene acid can be obtained by chlorination of trifluorotoluene. The target product is obtained by first reacting the trifluorotoluene with chlorine gas, followed by hydrolysis under acidic conditions.

Safety Information:
When operating acid, appropriate personal protective measures should be taken, such as protective gloves and goggles, to ensure good ventilation conditions. Avoid inhaling dust or gas. If contact with skin or eyes is made, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical help. In addition, it is recommended to store chemicals in sealed containers, away from ignition sources and flammable materials.
