5-AMINO-2-METHYL-BENZOIC ACID METHYL ESTER

Description:
5-Amino-2-methyl-benzoic acid methyl ester, with the CAS number 18595-12-5, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure, which includes a methyl ester functional group and an amino group. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline solid. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and methanol but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic ring. The presence of the amino group imparts basic properties, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, including acylation and amidation. This compound is often utilized in organic synthesis and pharmaceutical applications, serving as an intermediate in the production of dyes, agrochemicals, and other biologically active molecules. Its reactivity can be influenced by the substituents on the aromatic ring, making it a versatile building block in synthetic chemistry. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances, to ensure proper precautions are taken.
