Methyl 4-methoxybenzeneacetate

Description:

Methyl 4-methoxybenzeneacetate, also known as methyl p-anisate, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group. It is derived from the reaction of p-anisic acid and methanol. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pleasant, sweet aroma, making it useful in the fragrance and flavoring industries. Its molecular structure features a methoxy group (-OCH3) attached to a benzene ring, which contributes to its aromatic properties. Methyl 4-methoxybenzeneacetate is generally soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic characteristics. The compound is stable under normal conditions but should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes. Additionally, it is important to consider safety data sheets for proper handling and disposal guidelines. Overall, methyl 4-methoxybenzeneacetate is valued for its aromatic qualities and potential applications in various chemical formulations.

Methyl 4-methoxyphenyl acetate

CAS: 23786-14-3

Methyl 4-methoxyphenyl acetate is a natural product that is structurally similar to malonic acid. It has been shown to have an affinity for the estrogen receptor and can be used as a potential estrogen receptor modulator. Methyl 4-methoxyphenyl acetate has been found to be an active analogue of norbadione, which is a natural product that has been studied as a potential insecticide. The structural isomers of methyl 4-methoxyphenyl acetate are stable complexes with chloride ions, which may contribute to its ability to bind to the estrogen receptor.
