Aminobenzoic acids

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In chemistry , the aminobenzoic acids form a group of substances derived from both benzoic acid and aniline .

Representative

The structure consists of a benzene ring with attached carboxy  (–COOH) and amino  (–NH 2 ) groups as substituents . Their different arrangement ( ortho , meta or para ) result in three constitutional isomers . 2-aminobenzoic acid is known by its common name anthranilic acid .

properties

The aminobenzoic acid group includes:

Compared to aliphatic aminocarboxylic acids, the aminobenzoic acids are present in an aqueous solution in a significantly lower proportion as zwitterions (H 3 N + -R-COO - ), since the basicity of the amino group on the phenyl ring is reduced.
