3-(4-Methoxyphenoxy)benzoic acid

Description:
3-(4-Methoxyphenoxy)benzoic acid, with the CAS number 117423-75-3, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure and functional groups. It features a benzoic acid moiety, which includes a carboxylic acid group (-COOH) attached to a benzene ring, and a methoxyphenoxy group, where a methoxy group (-OCH3) is substituted on a phenyl ring that is further connected to another benzene ring via an ether linkage. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in organic solvents, reflecting its hydrophobic characteristics due to the aromatic rings. It may exhibit properties such as moderate melting and boiling points, and it can participate in various chemical reactions typical of aromatic compounds, including electrophilic substitution and esterification. Additionally, its structure suggests potential applications in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, or as a chemical intermediate, owing to the presence of both the aromatic and carboxylic acid functionalities, which can influence its reactivity and interactions in biological systems.
