3-Aminobenzoic acid (meta-aminobenzoic acid, m-ABA) is an aromatic amino carboxylic acid featuring an amino group positioned meta to the carboxyl functionality. It serves as an intermediate in dye and pharmaceutical synthesis and can participate in peptide coupling or diazotization reactions due to its functional groups. While less biologically prominent than its para isomer, m-ABA is used as a chemical building block for agrochemicals and specialty molecules, with its reactivity governed by the interplay of the electron-donating amino and electron-withdrawing carboxyl groups. Handling requires attention to its potential irritancy and proper solvent selection for reactions.
