3,5-二羟基苯甲酸甲酯可用于合成核心的树枝状大分子。它也用于制备双（5-碳甲氧基-1,3-亚苯基）-32-冠-10（一种半刚性的 32 元环二酯冠醚）研究了 3,5-二羟基苯甲酸甲酯的核糖核苷酸还原酶抑制作用和抗肿瘤活性 Methyl 3,5-dihydroxybenzoate was used in the synthesis of cored dendrimers. It was also used in the preparation of bis(5-carbomethoxy-1,3-phenylene)-32-crown-10, a semi-rigid 32-membered ring diester crown ether. The ribonucleotide reductase inhibition and antitumor activity of methyl 3, 5-dihydroxybenzoate were studied
