CAS 5731-13-5

4'-Ethylbiphenyl-4-carboxylic acid

Description:

4'-Ethylbiphenyl-4-carboxylic acid, with the CAS number 5731-13-5, is an organic compound characterized by its biphenyl structure, which consists of two phenyl rings connected by a single bond. The presence of an ethyl group at the para position of one phenyl ring and a carboxylic acid functional group (-COOH) at the para position of the other ring contributes to its chemical properties. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents, while its solubility in water is limited due to the hydrophobic nature of the biphenyl structure. The carboxylic acid group imparts acidic properties, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, such as esterification and amidation. Additionally, 4'-Ethylbiphenyl-4-carboxylic acid may exhibit biological activity, making it of interest in pharmaceutical and materials science research. Its structural features and functional groups suggest potential applications in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of more complex chemical entities.

4'-Ethylbiphenyl-4-carboxylic acid is a natural compound that has been shown to be an antioxidant and a potent inhibitor of neprilysin, an enzyme that degrades the peptides angiotensin I and II. This compound binds to the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) and inhibits MR activation by blocking its interaction with specific ligands such as aldosterone, cortisol, and corticosterone. MR is a transcription factor which regulates the expression of genes involved in metabolism, cell growth, inflammatory response, and blood pressure regulation. There are many different mechanisms through which 4'-ethylbiphenyl-4-carboxylic acid blocks MR activation including inhibiting protein synthesis and preventing receptor dimerization.
