Description

3-Hydroxybenzophenone is a benzoate that can be found in wastewater and has been reported to have carcinogenic effects. The chemical structure of 3HB is similar to 2-benzoylbenzoic acid, which inhibits mitochondrial membrane potential and induces apoptosis in hamster cells. 3HB also has acute toxicities and can cause cell death by inhibiting protein synthesis or inducing DNA damage. 3HB reacts with hydrochloric acid to form benzene, which may react with saccharomyces cerevisiae strain to form benzopyrene, a known carcinogen.
