The product we are introducing here is Factory Supply 4-iodophenoxyacetic acid with the CAS number 1878 - 94 - 0. CAS number is a unique numerical identifier assigned to every chemical substance for easy reference and identification in scientific literature, databases, and regulatory documents.
4-iodophenoxyacetic acid has a specific molecular formula. Its molecular formula is C₈H₇IO₃ and its molecular weight can be calculated based on the atomic weights of carbon (C), hydrogen (H), iodine (I), and oxygen (O) in the formula, approximately 278.04 g/mol. Physically, it has certain melting point, boiling point, and solubility characteristics. These properties are crucial as they determine how the product behaves under different conditions and in different solvents.
4-iodophenoxyacetic acid has a wide range of applications in different fields. In the field of agriculture, it can be used as a plant growth regulator. It can promote the growth and development of plants, enhance the resistance of plants to diseases and pests, and improve the yield and quality of crops. For example, in some fruit - bearing plants, it can help in better fruit setting and growth, making the fruits larger and more uniform in size.
In the pharmaceutical industry, it serves as an important intermediate. It participates in the synthesis of various drugs. Some drugs with anti - inflammatory, antibacterial, or antitumor activities may use 4 - iodophenoxyacetic acid as a key building block during the chemical synthesis process.
It also has applications in the field of organic synthesis. Chemists use it to create more complex organic compounds through a series of chemical reactions, which can be further used in the production of dyes, plastics, and other materials.
When using 4-iodophenoxyacetic acid, safety precautions must be taken first. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment such as gloves, goggles, and a lab coat. The product should be stored in a cool, dry, and well - ventilated place away from incompatible substances.
In agriculture, it is usually dissolved in an appropriate solvent and then sprayed on the plants at the right growth stage. The concentration of the solution needs to be carefully controlled according to the type of plants, the growth environment, and the specific purpose of use. In the pharmaceutical and organic synthesis industries, strict reaction conditions such as temperature, pressure, and reaction time need to be followed. Different reaction systems may require different handling methods. For example, some reactions may need to be carried out under anhydrous and anaerobic conditions.
Case 1: Agricultural Application
A strawberry farm in a certain area used 4 - iodophenoxyacetic acid as a plant growth regulator. They prepared a solution with an appropriate concentration and sprayed it on the strawberry plants at the flowering stage. After a period of observation, it was found that the fruit setting rate of the strawberry plants increased significantly. The strawberries were larger in size, more uniform in shape, and had a better taste. The yield of strawberries per unit area increased by about 20% compared with the previous year without using this product.
Case 2: Pharmaceutical Synthesis
A pharmaceutical company was involved in the synthesis of an anti - inflammatory drug. They used 4 - iodophenoxyacetic acid as an intermediate. By following a well - designed chemical reaction route and strict reaction conditions, they successfully synthesized the target drug. The quality and yield of the drug met the expected standards, and the drug showed good anti - inflammatory effects in subsequent pre - clinical trials.
