Benzoic acid, 5-[(1E)-2-(4-carboxyphenyl)diazenyl]-2-hydroxy-

Description:

Benzoic acid, 5-[(1E)-2-(4-carboxyphenyl)diazenyl]-2-hydroxy- is an organic compound characterized by its azo group, which is a functional group containing a nitrogen-nitrogen double bond (–N=N–). This compound features a benzoic acid moiety, indicating the presence of a carboxylic acid group (-COOH) attached to a benzene ring, along with a hydroxyl group (-OH) at the 2-position of the benzene ring. The presence of the diazenyl group contributes to its potential as a dye or pigment, as azo compounds are known for their vibrant colors. The compound is likely to exhibit properties typical of both benzoic acids and azo compounds, such as solubility in organic solvents and potential acidity due to the carboxylic acid group. Additionally, it may have applications in various fields, including pharmaceuticals, materials science, and dye chemistry, owing to its structural characteristics. Safety and handling precautions should be observed, as with many organic compounds, to mitigate any potential hazards.
