4-(2-Hydroxyethyl)benzoic acid

Description:

4-(2-Hydroxyethyl)benzoic acid, also known as HEBA, is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of a benzoic acid moiety substituted with a hydroxyethyl group at the para position. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline solid and is soluble in polar solvents such as water and alcohols due to its hydroxyl group, which can engage in hydrogen bonding. The presence of both the carboxylic acid and hydroxyethyl functional groups imparts unique properties, making it useful in various applications, including as a building block in organic synthesis and in the formulation of pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. Its molecular structure allows for potential interactions with biological systems, which may influence its behavior in biological assays. Additionally, 4-(2-Hydroxyethyl)benzoic acid can exhibit antioxidant properties, contributing to its utility in formulations aimed at skin protection. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as with any chemical substance.

4-(2-Hydroxyethyl)benzoic acid is a synthetic drug that binds to the dopamine D2 receptor and blocks adenylyl cyclase, which synthesizes cAMP. This results in a decrease in the binding of dopamine to its receptors, and therefore reduces the amount of dopamine that is transported into the cell. It has been demonstrated that 4-(2-hydroxyethyl)benzoic acid has affinity for both dopamine D4 receptors and dopamine D3 receptors. 4-(2-Hydroxyethyl)benzoic acid has been shown to be an effective anticancer agent in vitro, as it inhibits proliferation of human cancer cells by inhibiting DNA synthesis.
