| | 3-Methoxybenzoic acid Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | white to light yellow crystal powder | | Chemical Properties | 3-Methoxybenzoic acid is practically odorless. | | Uses | 3-Methoxybenzoic acid is used in the synthesis and characterization of 3-methoxybenzoates of europium (III) and gadolinium (III)1. It was used in conversion of aromatic carboxylic acids into methyl esters and reduction to the corresponding primary alcohols using a sodium borohydride-THF-methanol system | | Definition | ChEBI: 3-methoxybenzoic acid is a methoxybenzoic acid that is benzoic acid substituted by a methoxy group at position 3. It has a role as a flavouring agent and a human urinary metabolite. It is functionally related to a 3-hydroxybenzoic acid. It is a conjugate acid of a 3-methoxybenzoate. | | General Description | 3-Methoxybenzoic acid is an important intermediate in the synthesis of natural products. | | Safety Profile | Poison by intraperitoneal route.When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke andirritating fumes. | | Purification Methods | Crystallise m-anisic acid from H2O (m 109o, 110.5o) or EtOH/water. The S-benzylisothiuronium salt has m 176o (from EtOH). [Beilstein 10 II 80, 10 III 244, 10 IV 316.] |
