Structure of 4-Hydroxybenzoic acid (CAS NO.99-96-7):
IUPAC Name: 4-Hydroxybenzoic acid
Product Categories: Pharmaceutical Raw Materials;Benzoic Acids (Building Blocks for Liquid Crystals);Functional Materials;Phenols;Aromatics;Impurities;Intermediates & Fine Chemicals;Carboxylic Acids;Alphabetical Listings;Flavors and Fragrances
4-Hydroxybenzoic acid (CAS NO.99-96-7) is primarily known as the basis for the preparation of its ESTERS. As parabens, it was used as preservatives in cosmetics.
4-Hydroxybenzoic acid (CAS NO.99-96-7) is produced commercially from potassium phenoxide and carbon dioxide in the Kolbe-Schmitt reaction. It can also be produced in the laboratory by heating potassium salicylate with potassium carbonate to 240 °C, followed by treating with acid.

4-Hydroxybenzoic acid , its cas register number is 99-96-7. It also can be called 4-Hydroxybenzenecarboxylic acid ; Benzoic acid, 4-hydroxy- ; and 4-Hydroxy-benzoesaeure . It is hazardous, so the first aid measures and others should be known. Such as: When on the skin: first, should flush skin with plenty of water immediately for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing. Secondly, get medical aid. Or in the eyes: Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Then get medical aid soon. While, it's inhaled: Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. Give artificial respiration while not breathing. When breathing is difficult, give oxygen. And as soon as to get medical aid. Then you have the ingesting of the product: Wash mouth out with water, and get medical aid immediately.
In addition, 4-Hydroxybenzoic acid (CAS NO.99-96-7) could be stable under normal temperatures and pressures. It is not compatible with strong oxidizing agents, and you must not take it with incompatible materials. And also prevent it to broken down into hazardous decomposition products: irritating and toxic fumes and gases. hydrogen chloride, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide.
