• Description: Methyl 4-acetylbenzoate is a synthetic compound that can be used for the synthesis of imatinib and other pharmaceuticals. It is an effective method for the synthesis of butyric acid with high enantiomeric purity. The cross-coupling reaction was first reported by Suzuki in 1979, which has been widely applied to organic synthesis because it is efficient and produces simple byproducts. This reaction has also been used in the synthesis of model compounds and natural products, as well as in environmental pollution studies.
