The Uses of 4-BROMOBENZHYDROL

4-Benzoylbenzoic acid, along with methacrylic acid can be used as ligands for synthesizing a novel Tb(III) ternary complex with luminescent property.

General Description

4-Benzoylbenzoic acid is a benzophenone derivative. It can undergo hydrogenolysis to 4-benzylbenzoic acid. Cotton fabrics incorporated with 4-benzoylbenzoic acid have shown pesticide degradation ability, when exposed to UV irradiation.

Hazard

A poison.

Safety Profile

A poison by intravenous route.When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke andirritating vapors.

Purification Methods

Dissolve the acid in hot H2O by adding enough aqueous KOH solution till distinctly alkaline, filter and then acidify with drops of conc HCl. Filter off, wash the solid with cold H2O, dry it at 100o, and recrystallise it from EtOH. [Wertheim J Am Chem Soc 55 2540 1933, Beilstein 10 H 753, 10 IV 3305.]
