CAS 13836-62-9: Propanoic acid, 2-methoxy-2-methyl-
Description:Propanoic acid, 2-methoxy-2-methyl- (CAS 13836-62-9) is an organic compound characterized by its carboxylic acid functional group, which imparts acidic properties. This compound features a branched structure with a methoxy group (-OCH3) and a methyl group (-CH3) attached to the second carbon of the propanoic acid backbone. As a result, it exhibits both hydrophilic and hydrophobic characteristics, influencing its solubility in various solvents. Typically, propanoic acids are known for their moderate volatility and can participate in various chemical reactions, including esterification and oxidation. The presence of the methoxy group can enhance its reactivity and alter its physical properties, such as boiling and melting points. Additionally, this compound may have applications in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, or as a flavoring agent, although specific applications can vary based on its unique structural features. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances.
