CAS 16094-31-8: 5-(1,1-Dimethylethyl)-2-hydroxybenzoic acid

Description: 5-(1,1-Dimethylethyl)-2-hydroxybenzoic acid, commonly known as a derivative of salicylic acid, is characterized by its aromatic structure featuring a hydroxyl group and a carboxylic acid functional group. This compound is typically a white to off-white crystalline solid, exhibiting moderate solubility in polar solvents such as water and alcohols, while being less soluble in non-polar solvents. The presence of the bulky tert-butyl group (1,1-dimethylethyl) enhances its hydrophobic characteristics, influencing its reactivity and interactions in various chemical environments. It is often utilized in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. Additionally, its hydroxyl and carboxylic acid functionalities contribute to its potential as an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent. Safety data indicates that, like many organic compounds, it should be handled with care, as it may pose risks if ingested or inhaled. Overall, this compound's unique structure and properties make it of interest in both industrial and research applications.
