Description

4-Ethoxy-3-methoxybenzoic acid is a white crystalline solid that belongs to the class of isomers. This compound has been used in biological studies to study the functional theory of bond cleavage, hydroxyl group, and cleavage products. 4-Ethoxy-3-methoxybenzoic acid has also been shown to be a substrate for radical chain reactions, which are initiated by electron transfer from an organic molecule and may produce hydroperoxides or peroxides. The fatty acids found in this chemical react with trichloroacetic acid to form esters and conjugates. These esters are more water soluble than the original fatty acids, making them useful as solvents for organic reactions. 4-Ethoxy-3-methoxybenzoic acid is a precursor for coriolus pigment, which provides coloration for coniferous trees such as pine and spruce.
