3-Hydroxy-4-nitrobenzoic acid (CAS No. 619-14-7) is a compound that is capable of inhibiting chloroplast development in linseed and oat seedlings. It is used as pharmaceutical intermediates. It also exhibits inhibitory effects on Ras proteins, making them potentially useful compounds in treating cancer.
It is a Tafamidis intermediate, used to delay loss of peripheral nerve function in adults with familial amyloid polyneuropathy (FAP). It works by stabilizing the protein transthyretin.
