p-Acetoxybenzoic acid

Description:

p-Acetoxybenzoic acid, also known as acetylsalicylic acid or aspirin, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure and functional groups. It features a benzene ring substituted with both an acetoxy group (-OCOCH3) and a carboxylic acid group (-COOH) at the para position relative to each other. This compound is typically a white crystalline solid that is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. p-Acetoxybenzoic acid exhibits properties typical of carboxylic acids, including the ability to donate protons (H+) in solution, which contributes to its acidity. It is known for its anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and antipyretic properties, making it widely used in pharmaceuticals. The compound can undergo various chemical reactions, including esterification and hydrolysis, and is often utilized in organic synthesis as an intermediate. Its stability and reactivity are influenced by the presence of the acetoxy and carboxylic acid functional groups, which can participate in hydrogen bonding and other intermolecular interactions.

4-Acetoxybenzoic acid

CAS: 2345-34-8

4-Acetoxybenzoic acid is a hydroxylated benzoic acid that has been used as an intermediate in the synthesis of 2,4-dichlorobenzoic acid. 4-Acetoxybenzoic acid is a metabolite of the amino acid picolinic acid, which is found in plants. It has been shown to have binding constants with human serum albumin and human erythrocytes, making it useful as a reagent for pharmacological studies. A kinetic study of 4-acetoxybenzoic acid has been performed using vitro assays on rat liver microsomes to determine its reaction mechanism. The product of this reaction is p-hydroxybenzoic acid, which can be converted into 4-benzoyloxybenzoic acid by hydrolysis. This compound can also be produced by treating fatty acids with potassium hydroxide or sodium hydroxide in methanol, followed by hydroly
