2,4-Dihydroxybenzoic acid (Resochin,[4] sontochin,[4] SN-7619,[4] β-resorcylic acid) is a dihydroxybenzoic acid.
As a resorcylic acid, it is one of the three isomeric crystalline acids that are both carboxyl derivatives of resorcinol and dihydroxy derivatives of benzoic acid.[5] Synthesis from resorcinol is via the Kolbe-Schmitt reaction.[6]
It is a degradation product of cyanidin glycosides from tart cherries in cell cultures.[7] It is also a metabolite found in human plasma after cranberry juice consumption.[8]
Resochin is especially effective against avian malaria. Because the initial testing during the chemical development process used avian malaria its efficacy was recognised immediately.[4]
