| 2,5-Dimethylbenzoic acid Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | white to off-white crystalline powder |
| Uses | 2,5-Dimethylbenzoic acid was used in the synthesis of new derivatives of [24]paracyclophane. It was used as starting reagent in the synthesis of methyl 2,5-dimethylbenzoate. |
| Definition | ChEBI: A dimethylbenzoic acid in which the two methyl groups are located at positions 2 and 5. |
| General Description | 2,5-Dimethylbenzoic acid is a metabolite of pseudocumene (1,2,4-trimethylbenzene). |
| Purification Methods | Steam distil the acid, then crystallise it from EtOH or H2O (m 134-134.5o). [Beilstein 9 H 534, 9 IV 1802.] |
