3-Fluoro-4-hydroxybenzoic acid

Description:

3-Fluoro-4-hydroxybenzoic acid, with the CAS number 350-29-8, is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of a fluorine atom and a hydroxyl group on a benzoic acid framework. This compound features a fluorine substituent at the meta position (3-position) and a hydroxyl group at the para position (4-position) relative to the carboxylic acid group. It is typically a white to off-white solid that is soluble in polar solvents such as water and alcohols, owing to the presence of the hydroxyl group. The compound exhibits acidic properties due to the carboxylic acid functional group, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, including esterification and nucleophilic substitution. Its fluorine atom can influence the compound's reactivity and biological activity, making it of interest in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, 3-fluoro-4-hydroxybenzoic acid can serve as an intermediate in the synthesis of more complex organic molecules. Safety data should be consulted for handling and usage, as with all chemical substances.

3-Fluoro-4-hydroxybenzoic acid

CAS: 350-29-8

3-Fluoro-4-hydroxybenzoic acid is a metabolite of benzoate in microorganisms. It has been shown to be an inhibitor of the enzyme β-ketoacyl CoA synthase, which is responsible for fatty acid synthesis. 3-Fluoro-4-hydroxybenzoic acid binds to the active site of the enzyme and prevents the formation of acyl coenzyme A from acetyl CoA and malonyl CoA, thereby inhibiting fatty acid synthesis. This compound also binds to the nonheme iron in the enzyme, preventing its oxidation by protonation. The hydroxyl group in 3-fluoro-4-hydroxybenzoic acid is thought to coordinate with the metal ion in the active site of β-ketoacyl CoA synthase, stabilizing it and allowing for a tighter binding between these two molecules.
