2-(2-Hydroxyphenoxy)acetic acid

Description:
2-(2-Hydroxyphenoxy)acetic acid, also known as salicylic acid phenyl ether or by its CAS number 6324-11-4, is an organic compound characterized by its phenolic structure. It features a hydroxyl group (-OH) and an acetic acid moiety, which contribute to its chemical reactivity and potential applications. This compound is typically a white to off-white crystalline solid, soluble in polar solvents such as water and alcohols, due to the presence of the hydroxyl group. It exhibits properties typical of phenolic compounds, including antioxidant activity and potential anti-inflammatory effects. The presence of the acetic acid group may enhance its solubility and reactivity in various chemical reactions. 2-(2-Hydroxyphenoxy)acetic acid is often studied for its applications in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and as a biochemical tool in research. Its ability to interact with biological systems makes it of interest in medicinal chemistry and plant growth regulation. Safety data should be consulted for handling and usage, as with any chemical substance.
