CAS 611-73-4

Phenylglyoxylic acid

Description:

Phenylglyoxylic acid, with the CAS number 611-73-4, is an organic compound characterized by its carboxylic acid functional group and an adjacent carbonyl group, making it an α-hydroxy acid. It appears as a white to off-white crystalline solid and is soluble in water, reflecting its polar nature due to the presence of both hydroxyl and carboxyl groups. The compound has a molecular formula of C8H8O3 and features a phenyl group attached to a glyoxylic acid moiety, which contributes to its reactivity and potential applications in organic synthesis. Phenylglyoxylic acid is known for its role in various chemical reactions, including the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, it can serve as an intermediate in the production of other chemical compounds. Its properties, such as melting point and boiling point, can vary based on purity and environmental conditions. As with many organic acids, it may exhibit acidic behavior in solution, participating in proton transfer reactions. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may cause irritation to skin and eyes.

Phenylglyoxylic acid

CAS: 611-73-4

Phenylglyoxylic acid is a metal-chelating agent that has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties. It binds divalent metal ions, such as copper and zinc, which are essential for the activation of pro-inflammatory enzymes. Phenylglyoxylic acid also inhibits decarboxylases, which are enzymes that break down neurotransmitters like serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine) and norepinephrine. This drug has shown to be effective against inflammatory disorders in animal models by preventing the synthesis of prostaglandins.
