2-(1H-Pyrrol-1-yl)Benzoic Acid

Model: 10333-68-3
2-(1H-Pyrrol-1-yl)benzoic acid, also known as 1‑(2‑carboxyphenyl)pyrrole or 2‑(1‑pyrrolyl)benzoic acid, is an organic compound characterized by a pyrrole ring directly substituted with an ortho‑carboxyphenyl group [7+L3-L8]. With a molecular formula of C₁₁H₉NO₂ and a molecular weight of 187.19 g/mol, this unique structure combines the electron‑rich nature of the pyrrole heterocycle with the versatile reactivity of a carboxylic acid (–COOH) at the benzylic ortho position [3+L18-L19]. This distinctive arrangement makes it an ideal fragment molecule and molecular scaffold for linking, expanding, and modifying new chemical entities [6+L12-L16].

2-(1H-Pyrrol-1-yl)benzoic acid features a pyrrole ring widely regarded as a privileged heterocyclic scaffold found in numerous natural products, drug molecules, and pesticides. 2-(1H-Pyrrol-1-yl)benzoic acid’s inherent aromaticity and ability to engage in π‑stacking interactions and hydrogen bonding make it particularly attractive for enzyme inhibitor design and medicinal chemistry applications. Meanwhile, the carboxylic acid handle of 2-(1H-Pyrrol-1-yl)benzoic acid enables a wide array of transformations – esterification, amidation, decarboxylative coupling, reduction to the primary alcohol, or conversion to acid chlorides for further functionalization. These features position 2-(1H-Pyrrol-1-yl)benzoic acid as a versatile building block for drug discovery, agrochemical development, and coordination chemistry.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the distinction between 2‑(1H‑pyrrol‑1‑yl)benzoic acid and its regioisomers?

A:The key difference lies in the position of the carboxylic acid group on the benzene ring relative to the pyrrole substitution. The ortho‑substituted compound (this product) is the most commonly used in research because it offers unique conformational constraints and electronic effects. The ortho arrangement restricts rotation, providing a more rigid scaffold that can engage in intramolecular hydrogen bonding and enhance binding selectivity toward biological targets. Para‑ and meta‑substituted analogues behave differently in cross‑coupling reactions and biological assays. The ortho compound is also the one most extensively documented in medicinal chemistry literature for its use in synthesizing anti‑inflammatory and analgesic drug candidates.


Q2: What purity grades does Cosperpharm offer for this product?

A:We supply 2‑(1H‑pyrrol‑1‑yl)benzoic acid in two primary grades:
