CAS 29040-52-6: 6-Methoxy-3-methylbenzofuran

Description:6-Methoxy-3-methylbenzofuran, with the CAS number 29040-52-6, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of benzofurans, which are characterized by a fused benzene and furan ring structure. This particular compound features a methoxy group (-OCH3) and a methyl group (-CH3) attached to the benzofuran core, influencing its chemical properties and reactivity. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. The presence of the methoxy group can enhance its solubility in organic solvents and may also affect its biological activity. Benzofurans are known for their diverse applications in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and as intermediates in organic synthesis. The compound may exhibit interesting pharmacological properties, although specific biological activities would require further investigation. As with many organic compounds, handling should be done with care, following appropriate safety protocols to mitigate any risks associated with exposure.
