<p>Dimethyl 5-hydroxyisophthalate</p>

5-Hydroxyisophthalic acid dimethyl ester (5-HIPED) is a palladium complex that can be used in the synthesis of polymers. It has been shown to be an effective linker molecule for use in the polymerization of monomers with functional groups, such as chloride and hydroxyl groups. 5-HIPED has also been used for linking polyethylene glycols to form copolymers, which may have applications in cancer diagnosis and detection. 5-HIPED can also be used to synthesize cationic polymers, which are useful in cancer treatment.
