β-Hydroxybenzenepropanoic acid

Description:

β-Hydroxybenzenepropanoic acid, also known as salicylic acid propanoic acid or by its CAS number 3480-87-3, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure and the presence of both hydroxyl (-OH) and carboxylic acid (-COOH) functional groups. 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 ability to form hydrogen bonds. The presence of the hydroxyl group contributes to its acidity and reactivity, making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis and pharmaceuticals. β-Hydroxybenzenepropanoic acid exhibits biological activity, including anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties, which are of interest in medicinal chemistry. Its structural features allow it to participate in various chemical reactions, including esterification and oxidation. As with many organic acids, it may have specific handling and storage requirements to ensure stability and safety in laboratory or industrial settings.

3-Hydroxy-3-phenylpropanoic acid

CAS: 3480-87-3

3-Hydroxy-3-phenylpropanoic acid, or 3HPPA, is an intermediate in the synthesis of salicylic acid. It is also an endogenous metabolite found in urine samples and is a product of the metabolism of glucosinolates by hydrolysis. The hydroxyl group on 3HPPA reacts with a carbonyl group to form a Schiff base, which is then hydrolyzed by hydrochloric acid to form hippuric acid. The biosynthesis of 3HPPA occurs through the oxidation of fatty acids with the addition of a hydroxyl group from water.
