Benzophenone 7

Description:

Benzophenone-7, also known as 2-Hydroxy-4-methoxybenzophenone, is an organic compound commonly used as a UV filter in various cosmetic and personal care products. It is characterized by its ability to absorb ultraviolet light, thereby protecting skin and hair from UV radiation damage. The compound features a benzophenone structure, which consists of two aromatic rings connected by a carbonyl group, with additional hydroxyl and methoxy substituents that enhance its solubility and efficacy in formulations. Benzophenone-7 is typically a white to pale yellow solid, and it is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. Its stability under UV light makes it a popular choice in sunscreens, lotions, and other products aimed at providing sun protection. However, like many UV filters, it has raised concerns regarding potential skin irritation and environmental impact, prompting ongoing research into its safety and regulatory status. Overall, Benzophenone-7 plays a significant role in photoprotection within the cosmetic industry.
