Benzoic acid, 3-methyl-, methyl ester

Description:

Benzoic acid, 3-methyl-, methyl ester, commonly known as methyl 3-methylbenzoate, is an aromatic ester characterized by its pleasant, fruity odor. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether, but has limited solubility in water. The compound features a methyl group attached to the benzene ring at the meta position relative to the carboxylate group, which influences its chemical reactivity and physical properties. Methyl 3-methylbenzoate is used in various applications, including as a flavoring agent and fragrance in the food and cosmetic industries. It can also serve as an intermediate in organic synthesis. The compound is generally considered to have low toxicity, but standard safety precautions should be observed when handling it, as with any chemical substance. Its stability under normal conditions makes it a useful compound in both laboratory and industrial settings.

Methyl 3-toluate

CAS: 99-36-5

Methyl 3-toluate is the intermediate in a reaction where a benzyl ester is methylated by methanol and sulfuric acid. The reaction rate for the conversion of benzyl esters to methyl 3-toluate is dependent on the concentration of acceptor, which can be controlled by changing the solute concentration in the solution. Methyl 3-toluate has been shown to be an efficacious metabolic product from benzyl esters. This compound has also been shown to have a thermodynamic efficiency of greater than 99%. Methyl 3-toluate has not been shown to have any toxic effects, but it does exhibit quaternary ammonium salt properties.
