Beschreibung

4-Methoxybenzoic acid is a chemical compound that belongs to the group of phenylacetic acids. It is an organic acid with a carboxylic acid group and a hydroxyl group. 4-Methoxybenzoic acid is used as an intermediate in the synthesis of other compounds, such as 3-methoxyphenylacetic acid and dihydroconiferyl alcohol. 4-Methoxybenzoic acid has been shown to inhibit the growth of breast cancer cells by inducing apoptosis. This effect was found to be increased when combined with tamoxifen (a drug used for the treatment of breast cancer). The mechanism of action is not clear but may involve hydrogen bond formation between 4-methoxybenzoic acid and tamoxifen, leading to increased uptake into cells.
