3-Bromo-4-hydroxybenzonitrile is an acidic compound with a basic structure. It has been shown to inhibit the activity of thrombin, which is an enzyme that plays a key role in blood clotting. 3-Bromo-4-hydroxybenzonitrile also inhibits bacterial growth by binding to DNA and interfering with transcription. This compound can be synthesized from bromine and nitrite under acidic conditions or from chlorobenzene and hydroxylamine under basic conditions. 3-Bromo-4-hydroxybenzonitrile can be phototransformed into the corresponding phenol by UV irradiation, which may have potential health effects on humans and animals if it is absorbed through the skin or if ingested. The coating industry uses this compound to produce coatings for metal surfaces that are resistant to corrosion, because it prevents oxidation of metal surfaces.
