Salicylic acid is a beta-hydroxy acid used extensively in pharmaceuticals, skincare, and cosmetics. It has keratolytic, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties, making it effective in treating acne, psoriasis, and warts. As a precursor, it’s used in synthesizing aspirin and other salicylates. Its dual-functionality—hydroxyl and carboxyl—makes it reactive in esterification and aromatic substitution reactions.
