3-Hydroxydodecanedioic acid

Description:

3-Hydroxydodecanedioic acid, also known as 3-hydroxy-1,12-dodecanedioic acid, is a dicarboxylic acid characterized by the presence of two carboxylic acid groups (-COOH) and a hydroxyl group (-OH) on a dodecane chain. This compound features a 12-carbon backbone, making it a medium-chain fatty acid derivative. The hydroxyl group is located at the third carbon position, which contributes to its unique properties. It is typically a white crystalline solid at room temperature and is soluble in water due to the presence of the polar carboxylic acid and hydroxyl groups. 3-Hydroxydodecanedioic acid is of interest in various fields, including biochemistry and materials science, as it can serve as a building block for biodegradable polymers and surfactants. Its potential applications extend to pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, where it may be utilized for its emulsifying and stabilizing properties. Additionally, it can be involved in metabolic pathways, particularly in the context of fatty acid metabolism.

3-Hydroxydodecanedioic acid (3HDD) is an antibiotic-resistant compound. It has been shown to be effective against a number of antibiotic-resistant strains, including those resistant to tetracyclines or aminoglycosides. 3HDD has been shown to inhibit the production of carnitine in urine samples and to decrease fatty acid synthesis in the liver. In clinical studies 3HDD was found to have a profile similar to that of dodecanedioic acid and homologues. 3HDD inhibits the growth of bacteria by inhibiting fatty acid synthesis and metabolism, leading to cell death.
