CAS 2437-16-3

5-Hydroxy-1-naphthoic acid

Description:

5-Hydroxy-1-naphthoic acid, with the CAS number 2437-16-3, is an organic compound characterized by its naphthalene structure, which features a hydroxyl group (-OH) and a carboxylic acid group (-COOH) attached to the naphthalene ring. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline solid and is soluble in organic solvents, while its solubility in water is limited. The presence of both functional groups imparts acidic properties, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, such as esterification and amidation. 5-Hydroxy-1-naphthoic acid is often utilized in organic synthesis and can serve as an intermediate in the production of dyes, pharmaceuticals, and other chemical products. Its unique structure also allows it to exhibit potential biological activity, making it of interest in medicinal chemistry. As with many organic compounds, handling should be done with care, following appropriate safety protocols to mitigate any risks associated with exposure.

5-hydroxynaphthalene-1-carboxylic acid

CAS: 2437-16-3

5-Hydroxynaphthalene-1-carboxylic acid is a natural product that inhibits the growth of bacteria. It was first isolated from Streptomyces lividans, an actinobacterium, and was shown to be effective against gram positive and gram negative bacteria. 5-Hydroxynaphthalene-1-carboxylic acid has been used to study the molecular structure of benzene derivatives, including biphenyls, which are responsible for the degradation of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). The skeleton structures found in 5-hydroxynaphthalene-1-carboxylic acid were determined to be monosubstituted by substituent effects. This natural product also has antiinflammatory properties.
