Description:3-Isoquinolinecarboxylic acid is an organic compound characterized by its isoquinoline structure, which features a bicyclic aromatic system. This compound contains a carboxylic acid functional group (-COOH) at the 3-position of the isoquinoline ring, contributing to its acidic properties. It is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in polar solvents such as water and alcohols, while being less soluble in non-polar solvents. The presence of the carboxylic acid group allows for potential participation in various chemical reactions, including esterification and amidation. 3-Isoquinolinecarboxylic acid is of interest in medicinal chemistry due to its potential biological activities, including antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties. Additionally, it can serve as a building block in the synthesis of more complex molecules, making it valuable in pharmaceutical research. As with many organic compounds, handling should be done with care, considering safety data and potential hazards associated with its use.
