2-Amino-6-ethylbenzoic acid

Description:
2-Amino-6-ethylbenzoic acid, with the CAS number 66232-56-2, is an aromatic amino acid derivative characterized by the presence of an amino group (-NH2) and a carboxylic acid group (-COOH) attached to a benzene ring. The ethyl group is located at the 6-position of the benzene ring, contributing to its hydrophobic characteristics. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in polar solvents like water and alcohols due to the presence of the carboxylic acid and amino groups, which can engage in hydrogen bonding. It exhibits properties typical of amino acids, such as being a zwitterion at physiological pH, where it can exist in both protonated and deprotonated forms. 2-Amino-6-ethylbenzoic acid may have applications in pharmaceuticals, biochemistry, and as a building block in organic synthesis. Its reactivity can be influenced by the functional groups present, allowing for various chemical transformations. Safety data should be consulted for handling and usage, as with any chemical substance.
