4-(2-Hydroxynaphthalen-1-yl)benzoic acid

Description:
4-(2-Hydroxynaphthalen-1-yl)benzoic acid, also known by its CAS number 106359-69-7, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of both a naphthalene and a benzoic acid moiety. This compound features a hydroxyl group (-OH) attached to the naphthalene ring, which contributes to its potential for hydrogen bonding and influences its solubility and reactivity. The carboxylic acid group (-COOH) in the benzoic acid part provides acidic properties, making it capable of participating in various chemical reactions, including esterification and amidation. The compound is typically a solid at room temperature and may exhibit moderate solubility in polar solvents due to the presence of the hydroxyl and carboxylic acid groups. Its structural features suggest potential applications in pharmaceuticals, organic synthesis, and materials science, particularly in the development of dyes or as intermediates in the synthesis of more complex molecules. Additionally, the compound may exhibit interesting optical properties due to its aromatic structure.
