The vanillic acid system name is “4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzoic acid”. Molecular formula C8H8O4. Molecular weight 168.14. White needle-like crystals. Odorless, sublimates and does not decompose. Melting point 210℃. Easily soluble in ethanol, soluble in ether, slightly soluble in water. It does not develop color when reacting with ferric chloride. Vanillic acid is one of the active ingredients of Huahuanglian. The structures of Coptidis glycosides contain vanillic acid group, ferulic acid group and cinnamoyl group respectively. After hydrolysis, they are vanillic acid, ferulic acid and cinnamic acid. Vanillic acid is one of the antibacterial components of Coptidis Coptidis. The content of it was measured. The amount of vanillic acid can be used as an indicator to measure the quality of Coptis chinensis.
Vanillic acid is an oxidized form of vanillin that imparts a pleasant odor and is used as a flavoring agent in the food industry. VA is formed from the secondary metabolism of plants and has anti-cancer, anti-obesity, anti-diabetic, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects.
Preparation method: Using vanillin as raw material, it can be obtained through oxidation (silver oxide) or alkali fusion (potassium hydroxide, below 240°C), or it can be obtained by partially removing the methyl group from 3,4-dimethoxybenzoic acid.
Uses: used as reagents and spices.
The extraction methods of vanillic acid mainly include water extraction, organic solvent extraction and ultrasonic extraction, etc. The quantitative analysis methods are HPLC or GC-MS.

Vanillin is one of the main catechin metabolites discovered in the human body after drinking green tea extract.
Vanillin is a compound widely used in food, beverage, cosmetics, and medicine, which has been reported to have various functions, such as anti mutagenesis, anti angiogenesis, anti colitis, anti sickle and anti analgesic effects.
Vanillin is a dihydroxybenzoic acid that can be used as a seasoning agent. As the oxidation form of vanillin, it is an intermediate product in the two-step biological transformation process from ferulic acid to vanillin. It is abundant in the roots of the traditional Chinese medicine plant Angelica sinensis. It also exists in Akar oil, Moroccan nut oil, as well as in wine and vinegar. It can be used to synthesize stimulant drugs such as etamifan, modecanide, brovancin, vanillin lactone, and vanillin disulfonamide. It can be manufactured by oxidizing vanillin to carboxylic acid.
Vanillic acid can be mainly used in the synthesis of flavors or medicines, such as 5-nitrovanillic acid, which can be used as a 3,5-disubstituted catechol catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT-I) inhibitor. The synthesis of tolcapone, or as a precursor for the biosynthesis of rifamycin antibiotics (3-hydroxymethoxyrifamycin, 3-hydroxyrifamycin).
Vanillic acid is one of the active ingredients in plants such as vanilla beans, vanilla pods, and Coptidis Coptidis. It has antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, tyrosinase inhibitory, allelopathic, nerve-regulating, and procoagulant activities at home and abroad. All of them have been studied to a certain extent, have good activity, and have good market prospects. Examples of its applications are as follows:
