4-Chlorophenoxyacetic acid Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Propertieswhite to light beige powder
Uses4-chlorophenoxy acetic acid (4-CPA), a chlorine derivative of phenoxyacetic acid (PA), is a plant growth regulator used as a herbicide.
Uses2-(4-Chlorophenoxy)acetic Acid is used in the synthesis of a new class of hypoxia-inducible factor-1 inhibitors.
DefinitionChEBI: A chlorophenoxyacetic acid that is phenoxyacetic acid carrying a chloro substituent at position 4.
General Description4-Chlorophenoxyacetic acid is a herbicide. Degradation of 4-chlorophenoxyacetic acid in aqueous medium by advanced electrochemical oxidation processes, using an undivided cell containing a Pt anode has been reported.
HazardModerately toxic; mutagen.
Biochem/physiol Actions4-Chlorophenoxyacetic acid is a synthetic auxin, that is used to induce parthenocarpic ovary growth on flowers of wild type plants.
Safety ProfileModerately toxic by ingestion and intraperitoneal routes. Human mutation data reported. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of Cl-.
Purification MethodsCrystallise the acid from EtOH. It is a plant growth substance and a herbicide. [Beilstein 6 IV 845.]
