4-(Benzyloxy)benzoic acid

Description:

4-(Benzyloxy)benzoic acid, with the CAS number 1486-51-7, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure, which includes a benzoic acid moiety substituted with a benzyloxy group at the para position. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline solid. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic components. The presence of the benzyloxy group enhances its lipophilicity, which can influence its reactivity and interactions in various chemical environments. 4-(Benzyloxy)benzoic acid can participate in various chemical reactions, including esterification and nucleophilic substitution, making it useful in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, its structural features may impart specific biological activities, which can be of interest in medicinal chemistry. Proper handling and storage are essential, as with many organic compounds, to ensure safety and stability.

4-Benzyloxybenzoic acid

CAS: 1486-51-7

4-Benzyloxybenzoic acid is a carboxylic acid that is structurally related to adenosine. It has been shown to bind to the group P2 adenosine receptor, which may be involved in the regulation of locomotor activity and photophysical properties. This compound also inhibits fatty acid biosynthesis and has inhibitory effects on nerve injury, amide formation, and benzoate degradation. It has been reported that 4-Benzyloxybenzoic acid binds to metal ions such as cobalt and manganese, which may be important for its antimycobacterial activity.
