CAS 88709-18-6
:2-Ethoxy-4-methylbenzoic acid
Description:
2-Ethoxy-4-methylbenzoic acid, with the CAS number 88709-18-6, is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of both an ethoxy group and a methyl group attached to a benzoic acid framework. This compound typically exhibits a white to off-white crystalline solid form and is soluble in organic solvents, while its solubility in water is limited due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. The presence of the carboxylic acid functional group imparts acidic properties, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, such as esterification and amidation. Its ethoxy substituent enhances its lipophilicity, which can influence its behavior in biological systems and its potential applications in pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. Additionally, the compound may exhibit specific melting and boiling points, as well as distinct spectral characteristics in techniques like NMR and IR spectroscopy, which can be used for its identification and characterization. Overall, 2-Ethoxy-4-methylbenzoic acid is of interest in both synthetic chemistry and potential industrial applications.
