2-Benzoylbenzoic acid

Description:

2-Benzoylbenzoic acid, also known as benzoyl-2-carboxylic acid, is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by its two benzoyl groups attached to a benzoic acid framework. It typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline solid and is sparingly soluble in water but more soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone. The compound exhibits a melting point that is indicative of its crystalline nature. Its chemical structure features a carboxylic acid functional group (-COOH) that contributes to its acidic properties, making it a weak acid. 2-Benzoylbenzoic acid is known for its applications in organic synthesis and as a photoinitiator in polymer chemistry due to its ability to absorb UV light and facilitate polymerization processes. Additionally, it may exhibit biological activity, making it of interest in pharmaceutical research. Safety data indicates that it should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes.
