4-Benzyloxybenzyl cyanide

CAS: 838-96-0

Benzoic acid is a benzyl compound that is used in the manufacture of organic solvents and as a precursor for the synthesis of other compounds. It can be produced by the condensation of phenols with formaldehyde, followed by hydrolysis. The reaction with hydrogen chloride also yields benzoic acid. Benzoic acid is an intermediate in the biosynthesis of codeine and morphine. In the opium poppy, it is found in combination with alkali metal salts such as potassium or sodium carbonate, which serve to catalyze its formation from papaverine. This organic compound also has been shown to have aberrant properties, including inhibition of DNA synthesis and DNA repair.
