Nonyl 4-hydroxybenzoate

Description:

Nonyl 4-hydroxybenzoate, with the CAS number 38713-56-3, is an organic compound commonly used as a UV filter in cosmetic and personal care products. It is a derivative of para-hydroxybenzoic acid, where a nonyl group is attached to the hydroxyl group of the benzene ring. This compound is characterized by its ability to absorb ultraviolet light, thereby protecting products from photodegradation and extending their shelf life. Nonyl 4-hydroxybenzoate is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a mild odor. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. The substance is generally considered safe for use in cosmetics, although its safety profile is subject to regulatory review, particularly concerning potential endocrine-disrupting effects. As with many chemical substances, proper handling and usage guidelines should be followed to ensure safety and efficacy in formulations.

Nonyl 4-hydroxybenzoate is a metabolite of nonylphenol, which is a synthetic chemical used in the production of detergents and other industrial chemicals. Nonyl 4-hydroxybenzoate has been shown to have antiviral properties against herpes simplex virus type 1 and 2, as well as human immunodeficiency virus type 1. It also has anti-inflammatory effects on eosinophils, which are cells that play an important role in allergic reactions and immune responses. Nonyl 4-hydroxybenzoate has been shown to inhibit the growth of cancer cells in rats by acting on specific receptors for oestrogen in the liver. This compound also inhibits inflammation and autoimmune diseases by inhibiting the enzyme sulphatase.
