General description

4-Methoxy-2-methylbenzoic acid (2-methylanisic acid) is a trisubstituted aromatic compound. It is a positional isomeric form of 2-methoxy-4-methylbenzoic acid. 4-Methoxy-2-methylbenzoic acid readily forms complexes with Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II) and Cd(II).

Application

4-Methoxy-2-methylbenzoic acid may be used in the synthesis of 4-methoxy-2-methylbenzoates of Y(III) and lanthanides (III) (La to Lu, excluding Pm). It may also be used to synthesize 4-methoxy-2-methylbenzoic acid hydrazide and 5-bromo-4-methoxy-2-methylbenzoic acid.
