Description

4-Hydroxy-4'-biphenylcarboxylic acid is a kind of organic compound that has carboxylic acid functional group. It can be used as an intermediate for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, dyes, and other organic compounds. 4-Hydroxy-4'-biphenylcarboxylic acid can be synthesized from p-hydroxybenzoic acid in the presence of a chloride donor and an acceptor (e.g., sodium hydroxide solution) with oxalyl as the catalyst. Trichloroacetic acid is used to remove the hydroxybenzoic acid byproduct which may cause corrosion and instability problems.
