CAS 938-50-1

(2,6-dimethylphenyl)acetic acid

Description:

(2,6-Dimethylphenyl)acetic acid, with the CAS number 938-50-1, is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by its structure, which features a phenyl ring substituted with two methyl groups at the 2 and 6 positions, along with an acetic acid functional group. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline solid and is known for its moderate solubility in organic solvents, while being less soluble in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. It exhibits typical acid properties, including the ability to donate protons in solution, which can influence its reactivity in various chemical reactions. The presence of the methyl groups can affect its steric hindrance and electronic properties, potentially impacting its interactions with other molecules. (2,6-Dimethylphenyl)acetic acid is utilized in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. Safety data indicates that, like many organic acids, it should be handled with care to avoid irritation or adverse reactions.
