3-Amino-2-methylbenzoic acid

Description:

3-Amino-2-methylbenzoic acid, also known as o-amino-m-toluic acid, is an aromatic amino acid characterized by the presence of both an amino group (-NH2) and a carboxylic acid group (-COOH) attached to a methyl-substituted benzene ring. This compound features a methyl group at the 2-position and an amino group at the 3-position of the benzene ring, which influences its chemical reactivity and solubility. It is typically a white to off-white crystalline solid that is soluble in water and organic solvents, depending on pH. The presence of the amino group allows for potential interactions such as hydrogen bonding, making it useful in various chemical syntheses and biological applications. Additionally, 3-amino-2-methylbenzoic acid can serve as a precursor in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its molecular structure contributes to its role in biochemical pathways, particularly in the synthesis of other amino acids and proteins. Safety data should be consulted for handling and usage, as with any chemical substance.
