General description
6-Hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid is a hydroxynaphthoic acid derivative. Whole cells of the recombinant Escherichia coli strain expressing CYP199A2 were reported to catalyze the regioselective oxidation of 6-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid to afford 6,7-dihydroxynaphthoic acid. It can form co-crystals with caffeine.
Application
6-Hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid may be used in the synthesis of 5-bromo-6-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid and liquid-crystalline epoxy resins.
