| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Definition]
ChEBI: A monocarboxylic acid that is butyric acid substituted by a 2-methyl-4-chlorophenoxy group at position 4. | [Hazard]
Toxic by ingestion. | [Chemical Properties]
Colorless crystal; melts at 100 °C (212 °F);practically insoluble in water (44 mg/L at25 °C/77 °F); readily dissolves in most organicsolvents. | [Production Methods]
The industrial production of MCPB begins with the chlorination of o-cresol (2-methylphenol) to introduce a chlorine atom at the 4-position, forming 4-chloro-2-methylphenol. This intermediate is then reacted with 1,4-dibromobutane or similar butanoic acid precursors in an etherification step to form the phenoxybutanoic acid structure. The reaction typically involves base catalysis and controlled heating to ensure selective substitution and minimize side reactions. The resulting crude MCPB is purified through solvent extraction and crystallisation to achieve the desired chemical purity. | [Health Hazard]
MCPB is structurally similar to 2,4-DB,except one methyl group substituting a Clatom in the ring. Toxic properties and thesymptoms are similar to 2,4-DB. It is mod-erately toxic by ingestion and possibly otherroutes of exposure. Skin contact can causeirritation. LD50 oral (rat): 680 mg/kg LD50 oral (mouse): 800 mg/kg. | [Agricultural Uses]
Herbicide: A metabolite of MCPA (see above). MCPB is a
phenoxy herbicide produced as a sodium salt and an acid.
Herbicide registered for use on peas prior to flowering.
There are no residential uses of MCBP. Target organisms:
post-emergence control of Canadian thistle, buttercup,
mustard, purslane, ragweed, common lambsquarters, pigweed, smartweed, sowthistle, morning glory and other
broad leaf weeds[83]
