CAS 632-46-2

2,6-Dimethylbenzoic acid

Description:

2,6-Dimethylbenzoic acid, with the CAS number 632-46-2, is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by a benzoic acid structure with two methyl groups located at the 2 and 6 positions of the benzene ring. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline solid and is known for its relatively high melting point. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. 2,6-Dimethylbenzoic acid exhibits acidic properties, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, including esterification and amidation. It is used in organic synthesis and can serve as an intermediate in the production of dyes, pharmaceuticals, and other chemical compounds. Additionally, its derivatives may possess interesting biological activities, making it a subject of research in medicinal chemistry. Proper handling and storage are essential, as with many organic acids, to ensure safety and stability.
