3. Use and Manufacturing
3.1 Description
Resorcinol monobenzoate (CAS 136-36-7) is a chemical compound that appears as a white crystalline powder. Its basic structure consists of a resorcinol molecule with a benzoate group attached. This compound is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone, but has limited solubility in water. Resorcinol monobenzoate has physical properties that include a melting point of approximately 120-122°C and a boiling point of around 350°C. It is also known to have a characteristic odor.

Applicable Fields
Resorcinol monobenzoate has various applications in different fields:

1. Cosmetics: In the cosmetics industry, resorcinol monobenzoate is used as a skin-lightening agent. It helps to reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone. The mechanism of action involves inhibiting the production of melanin, the pigment responsible for skin coloration.

2. Pharmaceuticals: Resorcinol monobenzoate is also utilized in pharmaceutical formulations. It can be found in topical medications for the treatment of skin conditions such as acne and psoriasis. The mechanism of action involves its anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties, which help to reduce inflammation and combat bacterial growth.

Storage Conditions
The recommended storage conditions for resorcinol monobenzoate are in a cool and dry place, away from direct sunlight.
