Description

5-Bromosalicylic acid is a derivative of p-hydroxybenzoic acid that is used in wastewater treatment. The reaction of 5-bromosalicylic acid with the 1,3-benzodioxole-5-carboxylic acid leads to the formation of a new compound, which can be used as an intermediate in organic synthesis.
5-Bromosalicylic acid has been shown to inhibit the growth of hepg2 cells and K562 cells by damaging DNA. It also inhibits the suzuki coupling reaction by acting as a hydrogen sink and stabilizing the transition state through intramolecular hydrogen bonding interactions. A possible mechanism for this inhibition is that 5-bromosalicylic acid reacts with hydroxide ions to form bromohydroxylated products, which then react with amine compounds to produce carboxylates that can hydrogen bond with other molecules.
