Other Experimental
Loses water in a heated open system to give the anhydride; emits chlorine when heated to decomposition.;Melting point: decomposes to the anhydride.;Henry's Law constant=3.0X10-14 atm-cu m/mole @ 25 °C /Estimated/;Hydroxyl radical rate constant=8.2X10-12 cu cm/molecule-sec @ 25 °C /Estimated/
Stability
The acid loses water in a heated open system, tends to discolor and forms the anhydride, which melts at 230-235 °C. ...Chlorendic acid is very resistant to hydrolytic dechlorination... .
