Descriptions:
pubchem: Glycolic acid is a 2-hydroxy monocarboxylic acid that is acetic acid where the methyl group has been hydroxylated. It has a role as a metabolite and a keratolytic drug. It is a primary alcohol and a 2-hydroxy monocarboxylic acid. It is functionally related to an acetic acid. It is a conjugate acid of a glycolate.
chebi: A 2-hydroxy monocarboxylic acid that is acetic acid where the methyl group has been hydroxylated.
chembl: GLYCOLIC ACID is a small molecule listed in the ChEMBL database and has reached clinical trial phase 2.0.
wikipedia: Glycolic acid (or hydroxyacetic acid; chemical formula HOCH2CO2H) is a colorless, odorless and hygroscopic crystalline solid that is highly soluble in water. It is used in various skin-care products. Glycolic acid is widespread in nature. A glycolate (sometimes spelled "glycollate") is a salt or ester of glycolic acid.
