| Common Name | Piperic acid |

| Description | Piperic acid, also known as piperate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as benzodioxoles. These are organic compounds containing a benzene ring fused to either isomers of dioxole. Dioxole is a five-membered unsaturated ring of two oxygen atoms and three carbon atoms. On reduction with sodium amalgam piperic acid forms α- and β-dihydropiperic acid, C12H12O4, and the latter can take up two further atoms of hydrogen to produce tetrahydropiperic acid. Piperic acid is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Outside of the human body, Piperic acid has been detected, but not quantified in, herbs and spices and pepper (spice). This could make piperic acid a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Piperonal has many uses in industry and is itself a precursor to a good subsection of other chemicals. Piperic acid is an intermediate in the synthesis of other compounds such as piperonal, and as-such may be used to produce fragrances, perfumes flavorants and drugs as well as other useful compounds. Reaction of piperic acid with strong oxidizers such as potassium permanganate or ozone, or a halogen such as bromine followed by sodium hydroxide causes oxidative cleavage of the double-bonds, yielding piperonal and piperonylic acid. Piperic acid is a chemical often obtained by the base-hydrolysis of the alkaloid piperine from black pepper, followed by acidification of the corresponding salt. The toxic compound piperidine is given off during the base-hydrolysis of piperine and as-such, safety precautions should be taken. Piperic acid is found in Mentha piperita , Minthostachys verticillata and Piper tuberculatum. Piperic acid can be prepared from the commercially-available alkaloid piperine, a cyclic amide containing a piperidine group, by reacting it with a hydroxide such as potassium hydroxide, then acidifying the formed piperate salt with hydrochloric acid or another acid. |
