Salicylamide is a derivative of salicylic acid and is known for its analgesic and antipyretic properties. It is commonly used in pharmaceuticals as a mild pain reliever and fever reducer.
The salicylamide chemical formula is C7H7NO2. It consists of a benzene ring with a hydroxyl group at the ortho position and an amide functional group.
Salicylamide properties include being a white to off-white crystalline powder, slightly bitter in taste, and having low toxicity. It is stable under normal storage conditions and compatible with many pharmaceutical excipients.
Salicylamide solubility is low in water, but it dissolves more readily in ethanol, acetone, and other organic solvents. Solubility may improve with heat or formulation techniques.
Salicylamide is commonly used in pharmaceutical formulations as an analgesic and antipyretic agent. It is typically included in pain relief medications for mild pain and as a fever reducer, often in combination with other active ingredients.
