Description

2-Hydroxy-4-methoxybenzophenone is used as a broad-band filter in sunscreens cosmetic products in order to protect the skin from the deleterious effects of the sun. It acts as a reagent in the gravimetric determination of copper(II). Further, it is used in the preparation of poly[(2-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzophenone) propylene], which is a polymeric ligand useful for the synthesis of metal/ligand polychelates.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand.
