1-Methyl 2-carboxybenzenepropanoate

Description:
1-Methyl 2-carboxybenzenepropanoate, also known as methyl 2-carboxybenzoate, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group, which is derived from the reaction of a carboxylic acid and an alcohol. This compound features a methyl group attached to the benzene ring, along with a propanoate side chain. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and specific conditions. The presence of both the carboxylic acid and ester functionalities contributes to its potential solubility in various organic solvents while being less soluble in water. This compound may exhibit a range of chemical properties, including reactivity with nucleophiles and potential for hydrolysis under acidic or basic conditions. Its applications can span across fields such as pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and as intermediates in organic synthesis. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper precautions are taken.
