2-Ethyl-3-methoxybenzoic acid

Description:
2-Ethyl-3-methoxybenzoic acid, with the CAS number 57598-51-3, is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by its benzoic acid structure modified with an ethyl group at the 2-position and a methoxy group at the 3-position. 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 its hydrophobic aromatic structure. The presence of the carboxylic acid functional group imparts acidic properties, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, such as esterification and amidation. Its methoxy group can influence the compound's reactivity and polarity, affecting its interactions in biological systems and potential applications in pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. Additionally, the compound's unique structure may contribute to specific biological activities, making it of interest in medicinal chemistry. Safety data should be consulted for handling and usage, as with any chemical substance.
