Cas no 1975-54-8 (5-Cyano-2-methylbenzoic acid)

5-Cyano-2-methylbenzoic acid is a versatile aromatic carboxylic acid derivative featuring both cyano and methyl functional groups on a benzoic acid scaffold. This compound is valued for its utility as a synthetic intermediate in organic and pharmaceutical chemistry, particularly in the preparation of heterocycles and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). The presence of the electron-withdrawing cyano group enhances reactivity in nucleophilic substitution and condensation reactions, while the methyl group contributes to steric and electronic modulation. Its well-defined structure and high purity make it suitable for precision applications in medicinal chemistry and material science. The compound is typically supplied as a crystalline solid with consistent batch-to-batch quality.
