DL-Mandelic acid Chemical Properties, Uses, Production
Description
DL-Mandelic acid is a chemical compound belonging to the family of alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs). It is a racemic mixture containing equal amounts of the D and L enantiomers of Mandelic acid. It is commonly used in skincare products for its exfoliating and antibacterial properties. DL-Mandelic Acid is useful in suppressing pigmentation, treating inflammatory non-cystic acne, and rejuvenating photoaged skin. Moreover, it has proven useful in preparing the skin for laser peeling and helping the skin heal after laser surgery. This product appears as a white crystal substance.
Chemical Properties
Mandelic acid turns brown when exposed to light. It can be esterified easily with alcohols in the presence of hydrogen chloride.
Physical properties
(R,S)-Mandelic acid (a-hydroxyphenylacetic acid, phenylglycolic acid), C6H5CH(OH)COOH, C8H8O3, Mr 152.15, mp 118 – 121℃, is a colorless crystalline powder. It is readily soluble in ethanol and diethyl ether, less soluble in chloroform, and insoluble in petroleum ether. Its water solubility is 15 g per 100 mL of water. In alkaline solution, mandelic acid dissolves to form salts.
Uses
DL-Mandelic acid is used as a chemical reagent, in organic synthesis, and as a pharmaceutical raw material and intermediate, dye intermediate, etc.
Definition
ChEBI: Mandelic acid is a 2-hydroxy monocarboxylic acid that is acetic acid in which two of the methyl hydrogens are substituted by phenyl and hydroxyl groups. It has a role as an antibacterial agent and a human xenobiotic metabolite. It is a 2-hydroxy monocarboxylic acid and a member of benzenes. It is functionally related to an acetic acid. It is a conjugate acid of a mandelate.
Production Methods
(R,S)-mandelic acid is produced by hydrolysis of mandelic acid nitrile [532-28-5] (mp 10℃) with hydrochloric acid. Mandelic acid nitrile is obtained by the conversion of benzaldehyde [100-52-7] and hydrogen cyanide in the nascent state (NaCN + HCl) under refrigeration. Another method of producing mandelic acid is the hydrolysis of a,a-dichloroacetophenone with alkali.
