:

Benzeneacetic acid,3-hydroxy-4-(phenylmethoxy)-

Description:
Benzeneacetic acid, 3-hydroxy-4-(phenylmethoxy)-, also known by its CAS number 28988-68-3, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure and functional groups. It features a benzene ring substituted with a phenylmethoxy group and a carboxylic acid moiety, which contributes to its acidic properties. The presence of the hydroxyl group at the 3-position enhances its potential for hydrogen bonding, influencing its solubility and reactivity. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in organic solvents, with limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic components. Its chemical structure suggests potential applications in pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of compounds with anti-inflammatory or analgesic properties. Additionally, the presence of both the hydroxyl and carboxylic acid groups may allow for further derivatization, making it a versatile intermediate in organic synthesis. As with many aromatic compounds, it may exhibit stability under standard conditions but should be handled with care due to potential reactivity with strong oxidizing agents.
