Project Profile Gallic Acid
- Gallic acid [3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoic acid, C6H2(OH)3COOH] is obtained
from nutgalls and other plants or by the hydrolysis of tannic acid with
sulfuric acid
- Gallic acid has two functional groups in the same molecule, hydroxyl
groups and a carboxylic acid group. They can yield numerous esters and
salts including digallic acid which is formed by the reaction of two moles
of gallic acid with one another.
- Gallic acid and its derivatives are used in making dyes and inks,
photographic developers and has been used as astringents in medically
- Some gallates are used as antioxidants in foods.
- Tannins (tannic acid or gallotannic acid) are esters of digallic acid.
They are widely used in tanning leather, dyeing fabrics, manufacturing
inks, and in various medical applications (as astringents and to treat some
skin diseases).
- Technology for production of Vanillin Gallic Acid has been developed.
- Gallic Acid is a herbicide - disrupts the fungus’s ability to produce
aflatoxin
- Polyphenols are antioxidant compounds found in the skin and seeds of
grapes.The phenols in red wine include catechin, gallic acid and
epicatechin.Polyphenols have been found to have antioxidant properties
- Research on the antioxidants found in red wine has shown that they may
help inhibit the development of certain cancers
