Hazard Information

General Description

Triclinic crystals or light fluffy white powder.

Reactivity Profile

P-CHLOROBENZOIC ACID(74-11-3) is incompatible with strong oxidizing agents and strong bases.

Air & Water Reactions

Insoluble in water.

Fire Hazard

Flash point data for this compound are not available; however, P-CHLOROBENZOIC ACID is probably combustible.

Chemical Properties

white to light yellow crystal powder

Uses

A benzoic acid analogue that showed antifungal activity against strains of Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus fumigatus and Aspergillus terreus, causative agents of human aspergillosis, in in vitro bioas says. It is used as a preservative.

Definition

ChEBI: A monochlorobenzoic acid carrying a chloro substituent at position 4.

Preparation

4-Chlorobenzoic acid is obtained by oxidation of p-chlorotoluene: add potassium permanganate solution to the mixture of p-chlorotoluene and water in stages. The reaction is refluxed under stirring for 5-6h, then acidified with hydrochloric acid to pH 2, filtered to obtain the crude product, and recrystallized with ethanol to obtain the finished product.
