Produktinformation

• Name: 2-Hydroxyisophthalic acid
• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: 2-Hydroxyisophthalic acid is a hydroxylated derivative of p-hydroxybenzoic acid. It is used in the manufacture of esters such as 2-ethoxyethanol and 2-ethoxyethyl acetate. It has also been shown to have a number of enzyme activities, including esterases, glycosidases, and lipases. The macrocyclic structure of 2-hydroxyisophthalic acid is responsible for its ability to interact with other molecules through hydrogen bonding and coordination chemistry. The carboxylate group on 2-hydroxyisophthalic acid interacts with the hydroxy group on the fatty acids found in soap, which leads to its use as an emulsifying agent. The carbonyl oxygens on 2-hydroxyisophthalic acid are responsible for its anti-inflammatory properties as they inhibit prostaglandin synthesis when they bind to the cyclooxygenase enzymes that catalyze
