4-Hydroxycyclohexanecarboxylic acid

Description:
4-Hydroxycyclohexanecarboxylic acid, also known as 4-hydroxycyclohexanecarboxylic acid, is an organic compound characterized by a cyclohexane ring with a carboxylic acid group and a hydroxyl group attached to it. This compound typically appears as a white crystalline solid and is soluble in water due to the presence of the polar hydroxyl and carboxylic acid functional groups. It has a molecular formula that reflects its structure, containing both carbon and oxygen atoms. The presence of the hydroxyl group contributes to its potential as a chiral building block in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, its carboxylic acid functionality allows for various chemical reactions, including esterification and amidation. The compound is of interest in research and industrial applications due to its unique structural features and reactivity. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with any chemical substance.
