CAS 501-89-3: 4-Carboxybenzeneacetic acid

Description: 4-Carboxybenzeneacetic acid, also known as p-carboxyphenylacetic acid, is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of both a carboxylic acid group and an acetic acid moiety attached to a benzene ring. Its molecular structure features a benzene ring substituted with a carboxylic acid group at the para position relative to the acetic acid side chain. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in water and organic solvents, reflecting its polar functional groups. It exhibits acidic properties due to the presence of the carboxylic acid group, which can donate protons in solution. 4-Carboxybenzeneacetic acid is of interest in various fields, including pharmaceuticals and organic synthesis, where it may serve as an intermediate in the production of other chemical compounds. Additionally, its derivatives may possess biological activity, making it a subject of research in medicinal chemistry. Safety data should be consulted for handling and usage, as with any chemical substance.
