Gallic acid is obtained by the hydrolysis of tannic acid with sulfuric acid or enzyme. When heated above 220 C, gallic acid loses carbon dioxide to form pyrogallol, or 1,2,3-trihydroxybenzene, C 6 H 3 (OH) 3 , which is used in the production of azo dyes and photographic developers and in laboratories for absorbing oxygen.
