ChEBI: A benzene-derived hexacarboxylic acid in which each carbon of benzene carries a carboxy substituent. | [Uses]
Mellitic acid is part of a group of benzenepolycarboxylic acids that have potential anti-hemorrhagic properties. Mellitic acid is also used as a motif to investigate possible radial self-assembly using complementary aromatic bases. |
