4-Aminobenzoic Acid (CAS 150-13-0, also known as para-Aminobenzoic Acid or PABA because the number 4 carbon in the benzene ring is also known as the para position) acts as a gastric acid secretion inhibitor. It is employed as an intermediate in the synthesis of folate (Vitamin BX), azo dyes and cross linking agents. It is also useful in biomedical sector for the preparation of local anesthetic and ointments. It is widely used in industries to make pharmaceutical products, flavors and preservatives. It is actively involved as a UV-blocking ingredient in sun tan cosmetics.
