Benzophenone is a naturally occurring organic compound with the formula (C 6 H 5) 2 CO, generally abbreviated Ph 2 CO. Benzophenone has been found in some fungi, fruits and plants, including grapes. [4] It is a white solid with a low melting point and rose-like odor [5] that is soluble in organic solvents. Benzophenone is the simplest ...
Other benzophenone derivatives like avobenzone, benzophenone: These are related to oxybenzone, and “often used in sunscreens to absorb UV radiation,” says Rogers. “Some research suggests ...
Oxybenzone or benzophenone-3 or BP-3 (trade names Milestab 9, Eusolex 4360, Escalol 567, KAHSCREEN BZ-3) is an organic compound belonging to the class of aromatic ketones known as benzophenones. It takes the form of pale-yellow crystals that are readily soluble in most organic solvents.

Benzphenone-1 – benzophenone-12 (BP-1 –BP-12) are UVA/UVB absorbers. Some of them are used in sunscreens. Benzophenone-3 (oxybenzone) Benzophenone-4 (sulisobenzone)
Sulisobenzone (benzophenone-4) is an ingredient in some sunscreens which protects the skin from damage by UVB and UVA ultraviolet light. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] Its sodium salt, sulisobenzone sodium , is also referred to as benzophenone-5 .
I'm also getting mixed signals from the NIH data sheet on Benzophenone. Under Food Additives, it mentions "No safety concern at current levels of intake when used as a flavouring agent" (evaluated in 2001), but it's also listed as an endrocrine disruptor and possibly carcinogenic to humans.
