Ethyl 3-methoxybenzeneacetate

Description:

Ethyl 3-methoxybenzeneacetate, also known as ethyl 3-methoxyphenylacetate, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group. It is derived from the reaction of 3-methoxybenzoic acid and ethanol. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pleasant, sweet aroma, making it of interest in the fragrance and flavor industries. Its molecular structure features a methoxy group (-OCH3) attached to a benzene ring, which contributes to its aromatic properties. Ethyl 3-methoxybenzeneacetate is generally soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. The compound is often used as a flavoring agent and in the synthesis of other organic compounds. Safety data indicates that, like many esters, it should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes. Proper storage in a cool, dry place away from heat sources is recommended to maintain its stability and integrity.
