General description

4-Formylbenzoic acid is an important intermediate in the synthesis of terepthalic acid. It reacts with barium carbonate to yield two-dimensional barium(II) coordination polymer.

Application

4-Formylbenzoic acid has been used as reagent during esterification of 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-oxopiperidinyl-1-oxyl to yield 4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl 4-formylbenzoate.
It can also be used as a reagent to synthesize acid functionalized mesoporous silica catalyst by the condensation of its aldehyde group with -NH2 of amine functionalized silica.

Initial-rate measurements were made of the reduction of pyridine-3-aldehyde and p-carboxybenzaldehyde by NADPH catalyzed by pig liver aldehyde reductase I. The initial velocity analysis and product inhibition data suggest that aldehyde reductase I obeys a compulsory-order mechanism with pyridine-3-aldehyde as
