Benzoic acid,3,5-dihydroxy-4-methyl-, methyl ester

Description:

Benzoic acid, 3,5-dihydroxy-4-methyl-, methyl ester, commonly referred to as methyl 3,5-dihydroxy-4-methylbenzoate, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group derived from benzoic acid. It features a methyl group and two hydroxyl groups at the 3 and 5 positions of the benzene ring, contributing to its solubility and reactivity. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone, but less soluble in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. It exhibits properties typical of phenolic compounds, including potential antioxidant activity. The presence of hydroxyl groups can enhance its reactivity in various chemical reactions, making it useful in organic synthesis and potentially in pharmaceuticals. Additionally, it may have applications in the food and cosmetic industries due to its preservative properties. As with many organic compounds, safety data should be consulted for handling and usage guidelines.
