Chemical Properties
light yellow crystalline powder
Uses
(E)-3-(2-Methoxyphenyl)acrylic Acid is a noncompetitive inhibitor of tyrosinase.
Definition
ChEBI: (E)-2-methoxycinnamic acid is a member of the class of cinnamic acids that is trans-cinnamic acid carrying a methoxy substituent at position 2 on the benzene ring. It has a role as a Brassica napus metabolite and an EC 1.14.18.1 (tyrosinase) inhibitor. It is a member of cinnamic acids and a monomethoxybenzene. It is functionally related to a trans-cinnamic acid.
Synthesis
141-82-2

6099-03-2
To a 500 mL three-necked round-bottomed flask was added o-methoxybenzaldehyde (20 g, 146.90 mmol, 1.00 eq.), pyridine (250 mL), malonic acid (18.3 g, 175.86 mmol, 1.20 eq.) and piperidine (2.5 g, 29.36 mmol, 0.20 eq.). The reaction mixture was stirred at 85°C overnight. Upon completion of the reaction, most of the solvent was removed by distillation under reduced pressure, followed by adjusting the pH of the remaining solution with aqueous hydrochloric acid to 3.0. The precipitated solid was collected by filtration to afford 25.6 g (98% yield) of 2-methoxycinnamic acid as a white solid.
