3,5-Dimethoxy-4-methylbenzoic acid

Description:

3,5-Dimethoxy-4-methylbenzoic acid is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by its methoxy and methyl substituents on the benzene ring. The presence of two methoxy groups at the 3 and 5 positions and a methyl group at the 4 position contributes to its unique chemical properties, including its solubility and reactivity. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline solid and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone, but less soluble in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. It exhibits acidic properties due to the carboxylic acid functional group, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, including esterification and amidation. The compound may also show biological activity, making it of interest in pharmaceutical research. Its molecular structure influences its physical properties, such as melting point and boiling point, which are essential for applications in synthesis and formulation. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with any chemical substance.

CAS: 61040-81-1

3,5-Dimethoxy-4-methylbenzoic acid is an organic compound that has a carboxylate group and a long chain. It is synthesized from 3,5-dimethoxybenzoic acid through the borohydride reduction of the primary alcohols to produce a mixture of 2,3,4-trimethoxybenzoic acid and 3,5-dimethoxybenzoic acid. The nitro group on the phenolic ring can be reduced to the corresponding amine with sodium borohydride. 3,5-Dimethoxy-4-methylbenzoic acid has been found in natural products such as Cephalotaxus fortunei and Acacia confusa.
