:(2-methoxy-5-methylphenyl)acetate
Description:
(2-Methoxy-5-methylphenyl)acetate, with the CAS number 58506-24-4, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure and ester functional group. It features a methoxy group (-OCH3) and a methyl group (-CH3) attached to a phenyl ring, contributing to its unique chemical properties. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pleasant, sweet odor, making it potentially useful in flavor and fragrance applications. Its molecular structure suggests moderate polarity, which influences its solubility in organic solvents while being less soluble in water. The presence of the acetate group indicates that it can undergo hydrolysis in the presence of water, leading to the formation of acetic acid and the corresponding phenol. Additionally, (2-methoxy-5-methylphenyl)acetate may exhibit biological activity, which could be of interest in pharmaceutical research. As with many organic compounds, safety precautions should be taken when handling it, as it may pose health risks if ingested or inhaled.
