Description
Salicylic acid methyl ester is an aromatic ester supplied at a minimum purity of 99 % for laboratory and synthesis use. It is registered under CAS number 119-36-8 and EG number 204-317-7, with the empirical formula C₈H₈O₃ and a molar mass of 152,15 g/mol. Key physical data include a density of 1,18 g/cm³, a flash point of 96 °C and a boiling point of 221 °C. The compound is commonly applied as a fragrance intermediate, solvent component and synthetic building block in organic chemistry. This listing provides a 250 ml glass pack suitable for preparative work, formulation trials and routine laboratory handling. Identity and physicochemical parameters correspond to the specification from manufacturer Carl ROTH, supporting consistent performance in research and process-development settings. Clear boiling-point and density values aid safe transfer, storage planning and reaction design. The high assay grade makes the ester appropriate where defined purity is required for downstream chemistry or analytical comparison.
This article belongs on Acids, in Acids & bases.

Questions about Salicylic acid methyl ester, min. 99 %, 250 ml, glass
What is this article?
Salicylic acid methyl ester, min. 99 %, 250 ml, glass 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.
