Methyl p-coumarate

Description:

Methyl p-coumarate is an organic compound classified as a phenolic ester, derived from p-coumaric acid and methanol. It features a methoxy group (-OCH3) attached to the aromatic ring, which contributes to its solubility and reactivity. The compound typically appears as a pale yellow to colorless liquid or solid, depending on its purity and temperature. Methyl p-coumarate is known for its pleasant aroma and is often used in the fragrance and flavor industry. It exhibits antioxidant properties and has been studied for potential health benefits, including anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial effects. In terms of chemical behavior, it can undergo various reactions typical of esters, such as hydrolysis and transesterification. Its molecular structure includes a benzene ring, a double bond in the side chain, and an ester functional group, which influences its reactivity and interactions with other substances. Methyl p-coumarate is also of interest in the field of natural product chemistry and may be found in certain plants, contributing to their characteristic scents and flavors.
