2-Chlorobenzoic acid is an organic compound with the formula ClC6H4CO2H. It is one of three isomeric chlorobenzoic acids, the one that is the strongest acid. This white solid is used as a precursor to a variety of drugs, food additives, and dyes. | [Chemical Properties]
white crystals or powder | [Uses]
Preservative for glues, paints. Intermediate in the manufacture of fungicides and dyes. | [Uses]
The toxicity of halogenated benzoic acids was found to be directly related to the compound's hydrophobicity. Toxicity and quantitative structure-activity relationships of benzoic acids to Pseudokirchn
eriella subcapitata. | [Definition]
ChEBI: A monochlorobenzoic acid having the chloro group at the 2-position. | [Preparation]
It is prepared by the oxidation of 2-chlorotoluene. The laboratory scale reaction employs potassium permanganate. Alternatively it arises by the hydrolysis of α,α,α-trichloro-2-toluene.
The chloride is readily replaced by ammonia to 2-aminobenzoic acid. At elevated temperature it decarboxylates. | [Synthesis Reference(s)]

Tetrahedron Letters, 35, p. 1539, 1994 DOI: 10.1016/S0040-4039(00)76752-9 | [Purification Methods]
Crystallise the acid successively from glacial acetic acid, aqueous EtOH, and pet ether (b 60-80o). Other solvents include hot water or toluene (ca 4mL/g). The crude material can be initially purified by dissolving 30g in 100mL of hot water containing 10g of Na2CO3, boiling with 5g of charcoal for 15minutes, then filtering and adding 31mL of 1:1 aqueous HCl. The precipitate is washed with a little water and dried at 100o. [Beilstein 9 IV 956.] |
