==Isolation and derivatives== |

Gallic acid seems to have anti-fungal and anti-viral properties. Gallic acid acts as an antioxidant and helps to protect human cells against oxidative damage. Gallic acid was found to show cytotoxicity against cancer cells, without harming healthy cells. Gallic acid is used as a remote astringent in cases of internal haemorrhage. Gallic acid is also used to treat albuminuria and diabetes. Some ointments to treat psoriasis and external haemorrhoids contain gallic acid.<ref></ref> |

] molecule structure resembles that of two gallic acid molecules assembled in head to tail position and linked together by a C–C bond (as in ]) and two cyclic ] (]s) forming two additional 6-piece cycles.]] |
|
|
Gallic acid is easily freed from ]s by acidic or alkaline ]. When heated with concentrated ], gallic acid converts to ]. Hydrolyzable tannins break down on hydrolysis to give gallic acid and ] or ellagic acid and glucose, known as ]s and ]s, respectively.<ref>{{Citation |last=Andrew Pengelly |title=The Constituents of Medicinal Plants |pages=29–30 |year=2004 |edition=2nd |publisher=Allen & Unwin}}</ref> |

Mai was the first to employ it, but did so "with a heavy hand", often damaging manuscripts for future study.{{Citation needed|date=March 2008}} |

====Oxidation and oxidative coupling==== |
|
|
Alkaline solutions of gallic acid are readily oxidized by air. The oxidation is catalyzed by the enzyme ], an enzyme found in '']''. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Oxidative coupling of gallic acid with arsenic acid, permanganate, persulfate, or iodine yields ], as does reaction of methyl gallate with ].<ref name="ull-hcaa" /> Gallic acid forms intermolecular esters (]) such as ] and cyclic ether-esters (]s).<ref name="ull-hcaa">{{citation | author=Edwin Ritzer | author2=Rudolf Sundermann | contribution=Hydroxycarboxylic Acids, Aromatic | title=Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry | edition=7th | publisher=Wiley | year=2007 | page=6| title-link=Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry }}</ref> |

Early photographers also used it, ] (1801–1870) for instance and ] (1800–1877) for developing latent images in ]s. It has also been used as a coating agent in ]. |

Gallic acid is an important component of ], the standard European writing and drawing ink from the 12th to 19th centuries, with a history extending to the Roman empire and the ]. ] (23–79 AD) describes the use of gallic acid as a means of detecting an adulteration of ]<ref>Pliny the Elder with John Bostock and H.T. Riley, trans., ''The Natural History of Pliny'' (London, England: Henry G. Bohn, 1857), vol. 6, In Book 34, Chapter 26 of his ''Natural History'', Pliny states that verdigris (a form of copper acetate (Cu(CH<sub>3</sub>COO)<sub>2</sub>·2Cu(OH)<sub>2</sub>), which was used to process leather, was sometimes adulterated with copperas (a form of iron(II) sulfate (FeSO<sub>4</sub>·7H<sub>2</sub>O)). He presented a simple test for determining the purity of verdigris. From p. 196: "The adulteration , however, which is most difficult to detect, is made with copperas; ... The fraud may also be detected by using a leaf of papyrus, which has been steeped in an infusion of nut-galls; for it becomes black immediately upon the genuine verdigris being applied."</ref> and writes that it was used to produce dyes. Galls (also known as oak apples) from oak trees were crushed and mixed with water, producing ]. It could then be mixed with ] (])—obtained by allowing sulfate-saturated water from a spring or mine drainage to evaporate{{citation needed|date=October 2021}}—and ] from acacia trees; this combination of ingredients produced the ink.<ref>{{cite web|last=Fruen|first=Lois|title=Iron Gall Ink|url=http://www.realscience.breckschool.org/upper/fruen/files/Enrichmentarticles/files/IronGallInk/IronGallInk.html|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111002191808/http://www.realscience.breckschool.org/upper/fruen/files/Enrichmentarticles/files/IronGallInk/IronGallInk.html|archive-date=2011-10-02}}</ref> |
