CAS 60241-74-9: Trimethoxybenzoicacid

Description: Trimethoxybenzoic acid, identified by the CAS number 60241-74-9, is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of three methoxy (-OCH₃) groups attached to a benzoic acid structure. This compound typically exhibits a white to off-white crystalline appearance and is soluble in organic solvents, while its solubility in water is limited due to its hydrophobic aromatic nature. The presence of methoxy groups enhances its electron-donating properties, which can influence its reactivity and interactions in various chemical environments. Trimethoxybenzoic acid may be utilized in organic synthesis, serving as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, or other fine chemicals. Additionally, its structural features may impart specific biological activities, making it of interest in medicinal chemistry. As with many organic compounds, safety precautions should be observed when handling trimethoxybenzoic acid, including the use of appropriate personal protective equipment to mitigate any potential health risks associated with exposure.
