:4-(Hydroxymethyl)benzoic acid
Description:
4-(Hydroxymethyl)benzoic acid, also known as p-hydroxymethylbenzoic acid, is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of a hydroxymethyl group (-CH2OH) and a carboxylic acid group (-COOH) attached to a benzene ring. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline solid and is soluble in polar solvents such as water and alcohols, owing to its functional groups. It has applications in various fields, including pharmaceuticals, where it can serve as an intermediate in the synthesis of other compounds. The presence of both hydroxymethyl and carboxylic acid functionalities allows for versatile reactivity, making it useful in organic synthesis and polymer chemistry. Additionally, it may exhibit biological activity, which can be explored for potential therapeutic applications. As with many organic compounds, proper handling and safety precautions should be observed due to potential irritant properties.

CAS:<p>4-(Hydroxymethyl)benzoic acid is a chemical compound that has been used in the synthesis of a number of biologically active compounds. It has been used in the ligation reaction with chlorides to produce amines, and in the synthesis of cyclic peptides. 4-(Hydroxymethyl)benzoic acid has also shown potential as an inhibitor of butyric acid production by Clostridium species and other Gram-positive bacteria. This compound can be synthesized from phenylacetic acid and formaldehyde, which are readily available commercially. In addition, 4-(Hydroxymethyl)benzoic acid may be useful as a model protein for chromatographic science because it is soluble in water and contains functional groups that are found in proteins. The structure of this compound is similar to amino acids such as cysteine and methionine, which contain sulfhydryl (-SH) groups that can react with disulfide bonds (-S-S</p>Formula:C8H8O3Purity:Min. 95%Color and Shape:PowderMolecular weight:152.15 g/molHMBA Linker
