2-(Trifluoromethyl)isonicotinic acid (CAS# 131747-41-6)

Introduction:

2-(trifluoromethyl)isonicotinic acid. The following is an introduction to its properties, uses, manufacturing methods and safety information:

Quality:
2-(trifluoromethyl)isonicotinic acid is a white to pale yellow solid, which is a chemically modified isoniacinic acid derivative. It decomposes at high temperatures and forms salts with some metals. It can be dissolved in common solvents such as water, alcohols, and ethers.

Uses: It is widely used in the manufacture of pesticides, fungicides, and herbicides.

Method:
The preparation of 2-(trifluoromethyl)isonicotinic acid can be obtained by the reaction of isonicotinic acid with trifluoromethylsulfonate or ammonium trifluoromethylsulfonate. The reaction is generally carried out under acidic conditions and is catalyzed using appropriate solvents and catalysts.

Safety Information:
2-(Trifluoromethyl)isonicotinic acid is less toxic, but it still needs to be handled with caution. During the procedure, it is necessary to avoid inhalation, contact with the skin and eyes. When stored and handled, it needs to be separated from other chemicals to avoid contact with oxidizing agents. Follow safe operating procedures and use personal protective equipment such as gloves, glasses, and lab coats. When handling or disposing of, local rules and regulations should be followed.
