68052-36-8 - Introduction
Benzoic acid, chemical formula C7H6O2, usually exists in the form of white crystals or powders. It is a weak acid with a pungent smell.
When benzoic acid is combined with 2-(diethylamino)ethanol at a ratio of 1 to 1, a salt complex is formed, also known as benzoic acid/2-(diethylamino)ethanol salt.
The properties of this salt depend on the specific structure. Generally speaking, they are white solids and are relatively easy to dissolve in water.
benzoic acid/2-(diethylamino)ethanol salt has a wide range of uses. One of the most common uses is as a preservative, often used in food, drugs and cosmetics to inhibit the growth of microorganisms. In addition, this salt is also used as a component of certain drugs, such as local anesthetic drugs. It can also be used as an analytical reagent and buffer.
The preparation of this salt can be obtained by mixing benzoic acid and 2-(diethylamino)ethanol under appropriate conditions, and then purified by crystallization to obtain the pure product.
When using benzoic acid/2-(diethylamino)ethanol salt, the following safety information should be noted: Avoid contact with eyes, skin and mucous membranes. Provide adequate ventilation during use. Avoid inhaling dust. If swallowed or skin contact occurs, rinse immediately with water and seek medical help.
