p-Tolylacetic acid

Description:

p-Tolylacetic acid, also known as 4-tolylacetic acid, is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of a tolyl group (a methyl-substituted phenyl group) attached to an acetic acid moiety. Its molecular formula is C10H12O2, and it features a carboxylic acid functional group (-COOH) that contributes to its acidic properties. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline solid and is sparingly soluble in water, but more soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether. p-Tolylacetic acid is known for its applications in organic synthesis, particularly as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. It exhibits moderate toxicity and should be handled with care, following appropriate safety protocols. The compound's melting point and boiling point can vary based on purity and environmental conditions, and it is important to consult specific data sheets for detailed physical properties. Overall, p-tolylacetic acid is a valuable compound in chemical research and industrial applications.
