Carboxylic acids are ubiquitous in bioactive organic molecules and readily available chemical building blocks. Carboxylic ...

A carboxylic acid is an organic compound with a -COOH functional group. Carboxylic acids can carry out the same reactions as other acids such as hydrochloric acids.

Carboxylic acid reductase naturally produces aldehydes, but the researchers found it can be used to efficiently produce esters instead when a co-substrate was changed.

Carboxylic acids are found in sebum, the oily substance that creates a barrier and helps keep our skin moisturized. The carboxylic acids are large molecules, Vosshall explained.

Researchers report that carboxylic acids, functional groups contained in biomolecules, drugs, and materials can be readily modified by light-induced organic reactions using an aminocyclopropenone ...

Benzoic acid, the simplest benzene-based carboxylic acid, has been known since the 16th century. One of its discoverers was the legendary clairvoyant Nostradamus. Its most common natural source is gum ...

People with more carboxylic acids in their body odor are more attractive to mosquitoes, a study finds.
