m-Methylbenzylsuccinic acid

Description:
m-Methylbenzylsuccinic acid, with the CAS number 6315-20-4, is an organic compound characterized by its structure, which includes a succinic acid backbone substituted with a methylbenzyl group at the meta position. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline solid. It is soluble in organic solvents, such as ethanol and acetone, but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic component. The presence of both carboxylic acid groups and an aromatic ring contributes to its potential reactivity, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, including esterification and amidation. m-Methylbenzylsuccinic acid may exhibit biological activity, making it of interest in pharmaceutical and biochemical research. Its melting point and boiling point can vary based on purity and specific conditions. As with many organic acids, it may exhibit acidic properties, influencing its behavior in different pH environments. Proper handling and storage are essential due to its chemical nature, and safety data sheets should be consulted for specific safety and handling guidelines.
