Benzophenone, the base structure of these sunscreening agents Benzphenone-1 – benzophenone-12 ( BP-1 –BP-12 ) are UV A/UVB absorbers. Some of them are used in sunscreens .
4,4′-Dihydroxybenzophenone is prepared by the rearrangement of p-hydroxyphenylbenzoate: HOC 6 H 4 CO 2 C 6 H 5 → (HOC 6 H 4) 2 CO. Alternatively, p-hydroxybenzoic acid can be converted to p-acetoxybenzoyl chloride. This acid chloride reacts with phenol to give, after deacetylation, 4,4′-dihydroxybenzophenone.
The scientists analyzed blood, urine, feces, and tissue samples and found three metabolites: 2,4-dihydroxybenzophenone (DHB), 2,2-dihydroxy-4-methoxybenzophenone (DHMB) and 2,3,4-trihydroxybenzophenone (THB). [28] [29] To form DHB the methoxy functional group undergoes O-dealkylation; to form THB the same ring is hydroxylated. [27]
As of November 2015, PubChem contains more than 150 million depositor-provided substance descriptions, 60 million unique chemical structures, and 225 million biological activity test results (from over 1 million assay experiments performed on more than 2 million small-molecules covering almost 10,000 unique protein target sequences that ...
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 ...
In pharmacology, biological activity or pharmacological activity describes the beneficial or adverse effects of a drug on living matter. [1] [2] When a drug is a complex chemical mixture, this activity is exerted by the substance's active ingredient or pharmacophore but can be modified by the other constituents. Among the various properties of ...
There are three structural isomers: 1,2-dihydroxybenzene (the ortho isomer) is commonly known as catechol, 1,3-dihydroxybenzene (the meta isomer) is commonly known as resorcinol, and 1,4-dihydroxybenzene (the para isomer) is commonly known as hydroquinone.
2,4-Dihydroxybenzoic acid (β-resorcylic acid) is a dihydroxybenzoic acid. As a resorcylic acid, it is one of the three isomeric crystalline acids that are both carboxyl derivatives of resorcinol and dihydroxy derivatives of benzoic acid. [4] Synthesis from resorcinol is via the Kolbe-Schmitt reaction. [5]
