N-(3-Chloro-ortho-tolyl)anthranilic acid
1. Basic Information
Name: N-(3-Chloro-ortho-tolyl)anthranilic acid
Alias: 2-[(3-Chloro-2-methylphenyl)amino]benzoic acid
CAS No.: 13710-19-5
Molecular Formula: C14H12ClNO2
Molecular Weight: 261.70
Category: Chlorinated diphenylamine carboxylic acid, pharmaceutical NSAID intermediate
2. Physical and Chemical Properties
Physical Properties
- Appearance: Off-white to pale beige crystalline powder
- Odor: Faint aromatic odor
- Solubility: Soluble in ethanol, methanol, acetone, DMSO, dilute alkaline aqueous solution; slightly soluble in hot water; insoluble in cold water and aliphatic hydrocarbons
- Melting Range: 208–213 °C (partial decomposition)
- Hygroscopy: Non-hygroscopic under normal storage conditions
- Aqueous Property: Weakly acidic organic acid, dissolves in alkali to form soluble carboxylate salt
Chemical Properties
- Molecular Structure: Benzoic acid core with secondary amine linkage to 3-chloro-2-methylphenyl group; contains aryl chlorine, carboxyl and secondary aromatic amine functional groups
- Carboxyl reactivity: Esterification, amidation, salt formation, acyl chloride preparation for drug side chain derivation
- Secondary Aromatic Amine: Capable of acylation, diazotization, cross-coupling reactions; prone to slow oxidation in air
- Aryl Chloride: Stable under neutral/mild acidic conditions; undergoes nucleophilic substitution under high temperature alkaline conditions
- Thermal Stability: Stable below 190 °C; long-time heating above melting point leads to decarboxylation and darkening
- Photostability: Moderately UV-sensitive; long-term illumination generates faint yellow oxidation impurities
- Compatibility: Compatible with polar organic solvents; incompatible with strong oxidants, concentrated strong alkali
3. Main Application Fields
