2-Cyclohexylbenzoic acid

Description:

2-Cyclohexylbenzoic acid is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of a cyclohexyl group attached to the benzene ring at the second position relative to the carboxylic acid functional group. This compound typically exhibits a white to off-white crystalline appearance and is known for its relatively low solubility in water, while being more soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone. The presence of both the cyclohexyl and carboxylic acid groups contributes to its unique chemical properties, including potential applications in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its melting point and boiling point can vary based on purity and specific conditions, but it generally has moderate thermal stability. Additionally, 2-Cyclohexylbenzoic acid may exhibit weak acidity due to the carboxylic acid group, allowing it to participate in acid-base reactions. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with any chemical substance.

2-Cyclohexylbenzoic Acid

CAS: 97023-48-8

2-Cyclohexylbenzoic acid is a chiral compound that belongs to the class of pharmaceutical preparations. It is used as an inhibitor of enzymes such as hydroxylase, which is involved in the production of prostaglandins and leukotrienes, and has been shown to be effective in treating bowel disease. 2-Cyclohexylbenzoic acid may also be effective in the treatment of chronic bronchitis and autoimmune diseases.
2-Cyclohexylbenzoic acid binds to the active site on certain enzymes, thereby inhibiting their function. This drug also has a strong inhibitory effect on inflammation and oxidative stress, which may be due to its ability to inhibit phospholipase A2 (PLA2), an enzyme that triggers inflammatory reactions by catalyzing the release of arachidonic acid from membrane phospholipids. The light exposure can cause photochemical damage to the skin by inducing oxidation or perox
