Usage

General Description

1,2-Benzenediol, 4-bromo-5-methyl- (9CI) is a chemical compound also known as 4-bromo-5-methylresorcinol. It is a derivative of resorcinol, which is a phenolic compound commonly found in plants. 4-bromo-5-methylresorcinol is used in the production of hair dyes and colorants, as well as in the formulation of pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. It is also used as a reagent in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of other chemicals. 1,2-Benzenediol, 4-bromo-5-methyl- (9CI) has been studied for its potential biological effects and has been found to exhibit antiviral and anticancer properties. However, further research is needed to fully understand its potential applications and risks.

A putative intermediate in the biosynthesis of altenuic acids I–III was isolated from Alternaria alternata in the 1950ies and a sample survived over the decades. This resorcylic lactone named altenuic acid IV is a composite of a resorcylic and a muconic a

A 4, 5 - dihydroxy -2 - methyl benzoic acid

The invention discloses a preparation method of 4,5-dihydroxyl-2-methyl benzoic acid and belongs to the fields of fine chemical engineering and medicine intermediates. The preparation method of 4,5-dihydroxyl-2-methyl benzoic acid comprises the following steps: preparing an intermediate III or V by taking 4-methylbenze-1,2-diphenol as a raw material, then preparing an intermediate IV by virtue of the intermediate III or V, then transforming the intermediate IV into an intermediate II, and finally preparing 4,5-dihydroxyl-2-methyl benzoic acid by virtue of the intermediate II. The preparation method of 4,5-dihydroxyl-2-methyl benzoic acid has the advantage that the problems that raw materials are difficult to acquire, byproducts are many, yield is low, cost is high, steps are miscellaneous, safety can not be guaranteed and serious pollution is produced in the prior art are overcome.
