Application

3,5-Dimethoxybenzoic acid (3,5-DmeoxBA) is a versatile compound that appears as an almost white to light beige-pink crystalline powder. It serves multiple roles in chemical synthesis and research applications. This acid is notably used as a reactant in the synthesis of complex organic compounds, such as 5,7-Dimethoxy-3,4-diphenylisocoumarin through coupling with diphenylacetylene, and Biotin dimedone, essential in the study of protein sulfenation. Furthermore, 3,5-DmeoxBA acts as a ligand in the formation of lanthanide complexes, specifically [Ln(3,5-DmeoxBA)3(phen)]2, with phen representing 1,10-phenanthroline. As a methoxybenzoic acid, it features methoxy groups at positions 3 and 5 of the benzoic acid structure, and it functions as a plant metabolite. This substance is the conjugate acid of a 3,5-dimethoxybenzoate, highlighting its potential in both synthetic organic chemistry and biological studies.
