2-Hydroxy-6-methoxybenzoic acid

Description:

2-Hydroxy-6-methoxybenzoic acid, also known as salicylic acid methyl ether, is an aromatic compound characterized by the presence of both hydroxyl (-OH) and methoxy (-OCH₃) functional groups attached to a benzoic acid framework. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline solid and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone, but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic methoxy group. It exhibits weak acidity, similar to other carboxylic acids, and can participate in various chemical reactions, including esterification and acylation. The presence of the hydroxyl group contributes to its potential as a phenolic antioxidant, while the methoxy group can influence its reactivity and biological activity. 2-Hydroxy-6-methoxybenzoic acid is of interest in various fields, including pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, due to its potential therapeutic properties and applications in synthesis. Safety data should be consulted for handling and usage, as with any chemical substance.
