Product Information

• Name: 2-(3-Methoxy-phenoxy)-propionic acid
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2-(3-Methoxy-phenoxy)-propionic acid is a chiral compound that is used in organic synthesis. The racemic form of this molecule can be crystallized with the help of other molecules such as cocrystallization, heterodimers, underscores and enantiomers. It crystallizes in two different forms: the α-form and the β-form. The α-form has a melting point of 120 °C, whereas the β-form melts at 138 °C. The polymorphic nature of 2-(3-methoxy-phenoxy)-propionic acid is due to its structural differences in the crystal lattice. These differences are made possible by supramolecular interactions between neighboring molecules.
