General description
2-Methoxybenzoic acid was added as carbon supplement in the culture medium of Moraxella osloensis. Photophysics of 2-methoxybenzoic acid has been investigated using both the time-correlated single photon counting and the fluorescence up-conversion techniques.
Application
2-Methoxybenzoic acid was used as internal standard during quantification of free and conjugated salicylic acid in tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) cells by HPLC. It was also employed in the synthesis of pthalides.

Mander reductive alkylation of methyl 2-methoxybenzoate with prenyl bromide and hydrolysis of the enol ether afforded methyl 6-oxo-1-prenyl-2-cyclohexenecarboxylate. This was converted in five steps (reduction of the ketone, saponification, iodolactonization, ozonolysis, and intramolecular aldol reaction) to a spiro lactone cyclopentenal.
