5-Benzoylpentanoic acid is a chemical compound that has been shown to be an effective bactericidal agent against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. It is synthesized by the hydrogenation reduction of 5-benzoylpentanal, which is obtained from the oxidation of benzaldehyde with nitric acid. The synthesis of 5-benzoylpentanoic acid can be carried out in two steps: first, a benzaldehyde ester is obtained by reacting benzaldehyde with methyl acrylate in the presence of a base; second, the ester reacts with sodium hydroxide to produce 5-benzoylpentanoic acid. This chemical is also an organic solvent that can be used in the organic synthesis of other compounds. This compound has been shown to have inhibitory activity against oxocarboxylic anions such as phosphoric acid and perchloric acid.
