Isoamyl 4-hydroxybenzoate

Description:

Isoamyl 4-hydroxybenzoate, with the CAS number 6521-30-8, is an ester formed from the reaction of isoamyl alcohol and 4-hydroxybenzoic acid. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic sweet, floral odor, making it useful in the fragrance and flavoring industries. It is moderately soluble in organic solvents and has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic isoamyl group. Isoamyl 4-hydroxybenzoate exhibits stability under normal conditions but may undergo hydrolysis in the presence of strong acids or bases. Its chemical structure includes an aromatic ring, which contributes to its potential antioxidant properties. Additionally, it is often evaluated for its safety and potential applications in cosmetics and personal care products, where it may serve as a preservative or antimicrobial agent. As with many chemical substances, proper handling and safety precautions are essential to mitigate any risks associated with exposure.

Isoamyl 4-hydroxybenzoate is an organic compound that is used as a preservative in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. It is also used to inhibit the growth of Staphylococcus bacteria and has been shown to be effective in phase chromatography. Isoamyl 4-hydroxybenzoate is a diazide, which inhibits the growth of bacteria by inhibiting aerobic respiration. It binds to potassium phosphate, which causes it to be insoluble and precipitate out, thereby removing it from solution. Isoamyl 4-hydroxybenzoate can be found in coffee and tea as caffeine, but this form of the compound does not have antimicrobial activity. The sodium cholate in coffee or tea can also bind with isoamyl 4-hydroxybenzoate and remove it from solution. In addition, isoamyl 4-hydroxybenzoate can react with isopropyl alcohol or ethanol to produce a fluorescent
