Methyl 5-(acetylamino)-2-methoxybenzoate

Description:

Methyl 5-(acetylamino)-2-methoxybenzoate, with the CAS number 79893-19-9, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group and the presence of both methoxy and acetylamino substituents on a benzoate structure. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white solid and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone, but may have limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic nature. The presence of the methoxy group enhances its lipophilicity, while the acetylamino group can participate in hydrogen bonding, influencing its reactivity and interactions in biological systems. Methyl 5-(acetylamino)-2-methoxybenzoate may exhibit biological activity, making it of interest in pharmaceutical research, particularly in the development of analgesics or anti-inflammatory agents. Its synthesis generally involves the reaction of appropriate starting materials under controlled conditions, and it can be characterized using techniques such as NMR, IR spectroscopy, and mass spectrometry to confirm its structure and purity.
