4-N-Hexylbenzeneboronic acid is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a boronic acid functional group attached to a hexyl-substituted phenyl ring. This compound typically exhibits a white to off-white crystalline appearance and is soluble in polar organic solvents, such as methanol and ethanol, while being less soluble in non-polar solvents. The boronic acid moiety allows for the formation of reversible covalent bonds with diols, making it useful in various applications, including organic synthesis and as a building block in materials science. Its hydrophobic hexyl chain enhances its solubility in organic media and can influence its interactions in biological systems. Additionally, 4-N-hexylbenzeneboronic acid can participate in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, which are pivotal in the formation of carbon-carbon bonds in organic chemistry. The compound's reactivity and functional properties make it valuable in the development of pharmaceuticals and advanced materials. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as boronic acids can be sensitive to moisture and air.

4-n-Hexylphenylboronic acid is a chiral organic compound. It can be used as a drug target for antibiotics and has been shown to have antibacterial activity. 4-n-Hexylphenylboronic acid may also be used in the synthesis of biologically active molecules, such as oligopeptides, which are short chains of amino acids. These peptides are often used to treat bacterial infections because they can easily permeate cell membranes. The biological properties of 4-n-Hexylphenylboronic acid have been studied extensively and it has been shown to inhibit the growth of bacteria by alkylating the ribose sugar in their DNA. This inhibits DNA replication and transcription, leading to cell death.
