3,5-Dihydroxybenzoic acid Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

It is derived from benzoic acid through sulfonation, alkali melting and acidification. The benzoic acid was sulfonated with fuming sulfuric acid at 240-250°C for 5h to produce 3, 5-disulfonic acid benzoic acid, and then alkali-melted with sodium hydroxide at 300°C. The resulting reaction product was neutralized with sulfuric acid to weakly alkaline, After filtration and concentration, it was acidified to weak acidity and extracted with ether. The crude product obtained by recovering ether from the extraction solution is recrystallized with water to obtain a finished product.

Uses

3,5-Dihydroxybenzoic Acid is a metabolite of alkylresorcinol in human urine and plasma. 3,5-Dihydroxybenzoic Acid is also used as biomarker of whole grain wheat and rye.


3,5-Dihydroxybenzoic acid is used in organic synthesis and as intermediate for the pharmaceutical.
