CAS 14387-10-1

2-(4-ethylphenyl)acetic acid

Description:

2-(4-Ethylphenyl)acetic acid, with the CAS number 14387-10-1, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure and carboxylic acid functional group. It features a phenyl ring substituted with an ethyl group at the para position relative to the acetic acid moiety. This compound typically exhibits moderate solubility in organic solvents and limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic component. Its melting and boiling points can vary based on purity and specific conditions. As a carboxylic acid, it can participate in typical acid-base reactions, forming salts and esters. The presence of the ethyl group can influence its reactivity and physical properties, such as increasing lipophilicity. 2-(4-Ethylphenyl)acetic acid may have applications in pharmaceuticals or as an intermediate in organic synthesis, although specific uses can depend on further research and development. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with any chemical substance.
