General description

5-Bromosalicylic acid is a salicylic acid derivative. Its bonding to viscose fabric can impart antibacterial properties to the fabric. It has been identified as one of the brominated disinfection byproduct (Br-DBP) formed during the chlorination of saline sewage effluents.

Application

5-Bromosalicylic acid may be employed as a starting reagent for the synthesis of honokiol, a biphenyl-type neolignan.

Current strategies for the treatment of superficial non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) lesions include topical imoquimod, 5-fluorouracil, and photodynamic therapy. Although these treatments are effective, burning pain, blistering, and dermatitis have been reported as frequent side effects, making these therapies far
