n-Octanoyl-5-salicylic acid

Description:

n-Octanoyl-5-salicylic acid, with the CAS number 78418-01-6, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of salicylic acid derivatives. It features a salicylic acid moiety modified by the addition of an octanoyl group, which enhances its lipophilicity. This compound typically exhibits characteristics such as being a white to off-white solid, with moderate solubility in organic solvents and limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic octanoyl chain. n-Octanoyl-5-salicylic acid is known for its potential applications in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, particularly in formulations aimed at skin care, where it may serve as an exfoliant or anti-inflammatory agent. Its structure allows it to interact with biological membranes, potentially enhancing the penetration of active ingredients. Additionally, it may possess antimicrobial properties, making it useful in various topical applications. As with many chemical substances, safety data should be consulted to understand its handling and potential hazards.

5-Octanoylsalicylic acid

CAS: 78418-01-6

5-Octanoylsalicylic acid is an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant agent that has been shown to have skin-conditioning properties. It has been found to be effective in the treatment of skin diseases, such as erythema, scaling, and itching, due to its ability to inhibit tyrosinase activity. 5-Octanoylsalicylic acid has also been shown to increase cellular proliferation and lymphocyte transformation in vitro. This compound is a precursor of all-trans-retinoic acid (a form of vitamin A), which is used for the treatment of acne. 5-Octanoylsalicylic acid can be synthesized from methyl ethyl ketone and potassium dichromate by a Friedel-Crafts reaction. It is also found in fruits such as apples, bananas, peaches, and oranges. Animal studies have shown that chronic oral administration may lead to a decrease in dehydroascorbic acid levels and an increased risk
