3,5-Dimethylphenylacetic acid

Description:

3,5-Dimethylphenylacetic acid, with the CAS number 42288-46-0, is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by a phenyl ring substituted with two methyl groups at the 3 and 5 positions, along with an acetic acid functional group. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white solid and is soluble in organic solvents, while its solubility in water is limited due to the hydrophobic nature of the aromatic ring. The presence of the carboxylic acid group imparts acidic properties, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, such as esterification and amidation. 3,5-Dimethylphenylacetic acid may be utilized in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its structural features contribute to its potential biological activity, making it a subject of interest in medicinal chemistry. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances, to ensure proper precautions are taken.
