Description

Methyl 2-methoxybenzoate is a synthetic chemical that is used in the treatment of wastewater. It inhibits the activity of enzymes such as fatty acid synthase, which are involved in the synthesis of long-chain fatty acids. Methyl 2-methoxybenzoate has been found to be an efficient method for the synthesis of prenyl compounds. This product is also an active methylene and hydrogen bond donor, and it can form products with carboxylic acid conjugates through acid catalysis. Methyl 2-methoxybenzoate has been used as a reagent for analytical chemistry, including gas chromatography and liquid chromatography.
