Description
5-Hydroxy-2-methoxybenzoic acid is an aromatic hydroxy-methoxybenzoic acid derivative offered at a minimum purity of 95 % for laboratory and biochemical use. Identified by CAS number 61227-25-6, it has the empirical formula C₈H₈O₄ and a molar mass of 168,14 g/mol, giving a clearly defined molecular profile for synthesis, analytical work and intermediate preparation. The compound shows a flash point of 161,4 °C and a boiling point of 379,5 °C, indicating its thermal behaviour under typical laboratory conditions. Organic and medicinal chemists, as well as researchers in natural-product or structure–activity studies, can employ this benzoic acid analogue as a versatile building block. The material is available from manufacturer Carl ROTH within a focused biochemical portfolio, supporting reliable day-to-day sourcing for research workflows that require specialty aromatic acids in compact unit sizes without excess inventory.

Questions about 5-Hydroxy-2-methoxybenzoic acid, min. 95 %, 100 mg
What is this article?
5-Hydroxy-2-methoxybenzoic acid, min. 95 %, 100 mg is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Acids, inside Acids & bases, in Lab chemicals.
An acid on this shelf is the substance itself, concentrated or as a stated solution: hydrochloric, sulfuric, nitric, acetic and the rest. Concentration, purity and the trace metals decide the use. A concentrated acid and a volumetric solution of the same name are different products, and both burn.
An acid donates a proton. A base accepts one. In the bottle, the practical differences are the concentration, the purity and the anion or cation that comes along. Concentrated mineral acids are a different article from a dilute volumetric solution. The water in the acid, and the trace metals, decide whether it can be used for analysis. Check the substance on PubChem and the classification on ECHA CLP. Transport is the UNECE dangerous-goods framework. The legal texts are the CLP Regulation and REACH.
