Phenyl 4-aminobenzoate, also known as phenyl para-aminobenzoate, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group derived from para-aminobenzoic acid and phenol. It typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline solid and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone, but has limited solubility in water. This compound is often used in the synthesis of various pharmaceuticals and as a UV filter in cosmetic formulations due to its ability to absorb ultraviolet light. Its molecular structure features a phenyl group attached to the amino group of para-aminobenzoic acid, which contributes to its chemical reactivity and potential applications. Additionally, phenyl 4-aminobenzoate may exhibit biological activity, making it of interest in medicinal chemistry. Safety data indicates that, like many organic compounds, it should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes. Proper storage and handling procedures are essential to ensure safety and stability.

Benzoic acid, 4-amino-, phenyl ester

<p>Phenyl 4-aminobenzoate is an amide that can be polymerized to form a polymer. It is synthesised from the reaction of ethyl esters of phenyl 4-aminobenzoate with trifluoroacetic acid and chlorides in the presence of activated phosphorus oxychloride. Phenyl 4-aminobenzoate has substituent effects on its physical properties, such as gel permeation chromatography and optical properties. The amide group can be replaced by sulfoxide or anions, which leads to different physical properties.</p>
