3-Methoxybenzenepentanoic acid

Description:
3-Methoxybenzenepentanoic acid, with the CAS number 6500-64-7, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure and a carboxylic acid functional group. It features a methoxy group (-OCH3) attached to a benzene ring, which contributes to its chemical reactivity and solubility properties. The pentanoic acid moiety indicates that it has a five-carbon straight-chain alkyl group linked to the carboxylic acid, influencing its hydrophobic characteristics. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and temperature. It is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits moderate solubility in water due to the presence of the polar carboxylic acid group. 3-Methoxybenzenepentanoic acid may be utilized in various chemical syntheses, including the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, or as an intermediate in organic reactions. Its specific reactivity and applications can vary based on the functional groups present and the overall molecular structure. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances.
