Glycolic acid, CH20HCOOH, also known as hydroxyacetic acid, is composed of colorless deliquescent leaflets that decompose at approximately 78° C (172 OF). It is soluble in water,alcohol,and ether.Glycolic acid is used in dyeing, tanning, electropolishing,and in foodstuffs. It is produced by oxidizing glycol with dilute nitric ac-id.
Glyoxylic acid nature:
Glyoxylic acid is the simplest keto acid (aldehyde acid), which has both acid and aldehyde properties. Glyoxylic acid is used as a raw material for varnishes, as an intermediate for perfumes, medicines, dyes, plastics and household chemicals.
Glyoxylic acid is used as a flavoring agent and fixative in cosmetics, and used in pharmaceuticals.
Glyoxylic acid used :
Glyoxalic acid can be used in the synthesis of a variety of reactions.
Glyoxylic acid is used in Hopkins Cole reaction, which is used in the detection of tryptophan in proteins.
It reacts with phen0l to get 4-hydroxymandelic acid, which on further reaction with amm0nia gives hydroxyphenylglycine, as a precursor to the drug amoxicilln.
It is also used as a starting material for the preparation of 4-hydroxyphenylacetic acid, which is used to get atenolo.
