Description

CAS: 100-09-4 | C8H8O3 | 152.15 g/mol

4-Methoxybenzoic acid is used in oxidation and reduction of cytochrome c in solution through different self-assembled monolayers on gold electrodes using cyclic voltammetry. p-Anisic acid has antiseptic properties. It is also used as an intermediate in the preparation of more complex organic compounds.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
