3-(2-CARBOXYPHENYL)PROPIONIC ACID Usage And Synthesis

Description

3-(2-Carboxyphenyl) propionic acid is a chemical compound that belongs to the group of phytoalexins. It is a synthetic compound that is used as a raw material for the synthesis of various pharmaceuticals and additional organic compounds. 3-(2-Carboxyphenyl) propionic acid has shown luminescence properties, which may be due to its oxidation products. The isoquinoline alkaloids present in this compound are responsible for its anti-inflammatory effects. 3-(2-Carboxyphenyl) propionic acid can also be found in conjugates with chloride or other organic acids, such as diazide, which inhibit bacterial growth and increase the solubility of this substance.

General Description

3-(2-Carboxyphenyl)propionic acid (2-(2-carboxyethyl)benzoic acid) is an aromatic acid that undergoes cyclization to generate 1-indanone on heating. It is formed during the reaction of β-tetralone with KO₂ in toluene.
