Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Chemical Properties]
3-Methoxybenzoic acid is practically odorless. | [Chemical Properties]
white to light yellow crystal powder | [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. | [storage]
Store at -20°C | [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.] |
