Product Information

• Name: 2-Amino-3-methoxybenzoic acid hydrochloride
• Synonyms: 3-Methoxyanthranilic acid hydrochloride
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2-Amino-3-methoxybenzoic acid hydrochloride is a synthetic monosubstituted hydroxy analog of the natural alkaloids, which are substituted with an amino group. It is produced by the demethylation of 2-amino-3-hydroxypyridine and reacts with caprolactam to form 2,6-dihydroxybenzaldehyde. It has been used in the synthesis of methoxyanthranilic acid, which is a synthetic analogue of anthranilic acid. Hydrochloric acid can be added to 2-amino-3-methoxybenzoic acid hydrochloride to produce 2,6-dihydroxybenzoyl chloride. This compound also undergoes condensation reactions with methoxyanthranilic acid to form 2,6-dimethoxybenzaldehyde.
