Description:
1-Naphthalenecarboxylic acid, 5-hydroxy-, methyl ester, also known by its CAS number 91307-40-3, is an organic compound characterized by its naphthalene structure with a carboxylic acid group and a methoxy group. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white solid and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone, but has limited solubility in water. The presence of the hydroxyl group contributes to its potential as a hydrogen bond donor, influencing its reactivity and interactions with other molecules. It may exhibit properties typical of both esters and phenolic compounds, making it of interest in various chemical applications, including pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The compound's structure allows for potential biological activity, which can be explored in medicinal chemistry. As with many organic compounds, safety precautions should be taken when handling it, as it may pose health risks if ingested or inhaled.
