Description

3-Cyclopropylmethoxy-4-difluoromethoxy-benzoic acid is an industrial chemical that is used as a binding agent in the production of dyes, rubber, and pharmaceuticals. The compound is produced by the acylation of 3-chloromethoxybenzoic acid with cyclopropylmethanol. This reaction requires an inorganic base such as potassium carbonate or sodium bicarbonate to activate the chloride. 3-Cyclopropylmethoxy-4-difluoromethoxybenzoic acid can be used as a reactive alkylating agent for the production of amides and other organic compounds, which increases its versatility.
