Application

3,4-Dihydroxybenzaldehyde can be used as a reactant for the synthesis of:
  • Copolymers containing poly(p-phenylenevinylene) chromophore to be used in light-emitting electrochemical cell.
  • 2-Arylbenzothiazoles with potential application as anti-cancer agents against human colon cancer cells.
  • Variety of thiazolidin-4-one ring systems having antimicrobial activity.
  • Bis-Schiff bases of isatins which can be used as antiglycating agents.
