Methyl 3-(3-piperidinyloxy)benzoate

Description:

Methyl 3-(3-piperidinyloxy)benzoate, identified by its CAS number 946681-12-5, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group and a piperidine moiety. This compound features a methyl ester derived from benzoic acid, with a piperidinyloxy substituent at the meta position of the aromatic ring. The presence of the piperidine ring contributes to its potential biological activity, as piperidine derivatives are often associated with various pharmacological properties. Methyl 3-(3-piperidinyloxy)benzoate is typically a white to off-white solid, soluble in organic solvents, and may exhibit moderate stability under standard conditions. Its molecular structure suggests potential applications in medicinal chemistry, particularly in the development of compounds targeting neurological or psychological conditions, given the role of piperidine derivatives in drug design. As with many organic compounds, handling should be done with care, considering safety data and potential hazards associated with its use.
