Descripción

4-(Hydroxymethyl)benzoic acid is a chemical compound that has been used in the synthesis of a number of biologically active compounds. It has been used in the ligation reaction with chlorides to produce amines, and in the synthesis of cyclic peptides. 4-(Hydroxymethyl)benzoic acid has also shown potential as an inhibitor of butyric acid production by Clostridium species and other Gram-positive bacteria. This compound can be synthesized from phenylacetic acid and formaldehyde, which are readily available commercially. In addition, 4-(Hydroxymethyl)benzoic acid may be useful as a model protein for chromatographic science because it is soluble in water and contains functional groups that are found in proteins. The structure of this compound is similar to amino acids such as cysteine and methionine, which contain sulfhydryl (-SH) groups that can react with disulfide bonds (-S-S
