DESCRIPTION AND APPLICATIONS |
||
|
Monochloroacetic acid, chlorinated simplest carboxylic acid, has electron-withdrawing atoms on the next carbon to acid. The closer the electronegative atom is to the COOH group, the more acidic. Chloroacetic acid is more acidic than acetic acid. The more electronegative atom presence tends to strengthen the acidic property. Trichloroacetic acid is stronger than monochloroacetic acid. Monochloroacetic acid and its derivatives are used as one of the first choice chemical intermediates for the production of;
