A series of new 3-(2-chloro-4-trifluoromethylphenoxy)benzoates (2) have been synthesized by the reactions of substituted phenols with intermediate 3-(2-chloro-4-trifluoromethylphenoxy)benzoyl chloride (1). The structures of compounds have been confirmed by 1H NMR, IR, EI-MS and elemental analyses. The structure of 3-methylphenyl 3-(2-chloro-4-trifluoromethylphenoxy)benzoate (2f) has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The results of preliminary bioassay indicated that most of title compounds possess a moderate herbicidal activity against dicotyledonous weeds.
Key words: synthesis; diphenyl ether; herbicidal activity
