4-Iodobenzoic acid, or p-iodobenzoic acid, is an isomer of iodobenzoic acid.[3]

Structure

[edit]
4-iodobenzoic acid crystallization[4]

X-ray crystallography of 4-iodobenzoic acid has shown that it crystallizes in the solid state as hydrogen-bonded dimers which stack perpendicular to their aromatic rings. The iodine atoms of adjacent dimers are also oriented towards each other due to van der Waals forces.[4]

Preparation

[edit]

4-Iodobenzoic acid may be prepared in the laboratory by the oxidation of p-iodotoluene with potassium permanganate.[5]

Reactions

[edit]

The carboxylic acid functionality of 4-iodobenzoic acid undergoes Fischer–Speier esterification with methanol to form the ester methyl 4-iodobenzoate.[6]
