2,4-Dimethylphenylacetic acid

Description:

2,4-Dimethylphenylacetic acid, with the CAS number 6331-04-0, is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by its structure, which features a phenyl ring substituted with two methyl groups at the 2 and 4 positions, along with an acetic acid functional group. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white solid and is known for its moderate solubility in organic solvents, while being less soluble in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. It exhibits typical acid properties, including the ability to donate protons in solution, which can influence its reactivity and interactions with other chemical species. The presence of the dimethyl groups can affect the steric hindrance and electronic properties of the molecule, potentially influencing its reactivity in various chemical reactions. 2,4-Dimethylphenylacetic acid may be utilized in organic synthesis and could serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. As with many organic acids, it should be handled with care, considering its potential irritant properties.
