Description
Methyl 4-hydroxy-2-methylbenzoate is a substituted aromatic ester offered at a minimum purity of 95 % for laboratory chemical and biochemical work. The compound has the empirical formula C₉H₁₀O₃, a molar mass of 166,17 g/mol, and CAS number 57556-31-7, establishing a clear molecular identity for documentation and reaction design. It is Hydroxy- and methyl-substituted benzoate esters of this class are common building blocks toward more elaborate phenolic and aromatic targets. Manufacturer molar-mass data support accurate weighing and stoichiometric calculations without guesswork. Sourced from manufacturer Carl ROTH within specialty biochemical ranges, the product serves academic and industrial teams that prefer a stated minimum assay for reproducible workflows. Whether used in ester transformations, protection–deprotection sequences, or library assembly, this methyl hydroxybenzoate helps keep starting-material quality aligned across related experiments and follow-up studies.

Questions about Methyl 4-hydroxy-2-methylbenzoate, min. 95 %, 5 g
What is this article?
Methyl 4-hydroxy-2-methylbenzoate, min. 95 %, 5 g is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Organic building blocks & synthesis reagents, inside Organic chemicals & synthesis reagents, in Produits chimiques.
A building block is an organic molecule bought to become part of a larger one. The structure, the CAS number and the purity decide it. A 95 percent reagent and a 99.9 percent reagent of the same name leave different impurities in the product. The functional groups are the reason it was chosen.
An organic chemical is built on carbon. In this category it is a building block or a reagent for making another molecule: a starting material, a coupling agent, a polymer, a PEG. Purity is a specification of which impurities remain. The structure, the CAS number and the grade decide whether two bottles are the same substance. Structures and properties are on PubChem. Nomenclature is IUPAC. Classification follows ECHA and the CLP Regulation.
