General description

5-Methoxy-2-nitrobenzoic acid is a substituted 2-nitrobenzoic acid. It has been reported to be one of the microbial degradation metabolite of cypermethrin, a synthetic pyrethroid pesticide.[1]

Application

5-Methoxy-2-nitrobenzoic acid may be used as starting material in the synthesis of the following:
  • dictyoquinazol A, a neuroprotective compound[2]
  • 5-methoxyantranilic acid by catalytic reduction[3]
  • pyrrolobenzodiazepines[4]
5-Methoxy-2-nitrobenzoic acid may be used in the synthesis of the following N-phenylethyl-2-nitrobenzamides:[5]
  • N-phenylethyl-5-methoxy-2-nitrobenzamide
  • N-(4-methoxyphenylethyl)-5-methoxy-2-nitrobenzamide
  • N-(3,4-dimethoxyphenylethyl)-5-methoxy-2-nitrobenzamide
  • N-(phenethyl)-5-chloro-2-nitrobenzamide
  • N-(3,4-dimethoxyphenethyl)-5-chloro-2-nitrobenzamide
