p-Anisidine CAS 104-94-9

What is p-Anisidine CAS 104-94-9?

p-Anisidine CAS 104-94-9 is a substituted aniline in which a methoxy group is located at the para position relative to the amino group on the benzene ring. It generally appears as a dark gray to brown crystalline solid and has a characteristic amine-like odor. Due to the presence of both amino and methoxy functional groups, the compound is widely used as a key intermediate in dye synthesis, pharmaceutical production, and specialty chemical manufacturing.

Specifications

Features

• Substituted Aromatic Amine: Contains both amino and methoxy functional groups, enabling diverse reactions in organic synthesis.
• Defined Thermal Properties: Clearly characterized melting and boiling points support reliable identification and processing.
• Moderate Water Solubility: Slightly soluble in water and readily soluble in many organic solvents.
• Stable Crystalline Solid: Appears as a crystalline material that may darken during storage without significant loss of purity.

Applications

• Dye and Pigment Manufacturing: Widely used as an intermediate in the production of azo dyes, triphenylmethane dyes, and naphthol AS series pigments for inks and plastics.
• Pharmaceutical Production: Applied in the synthesis of certain active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), antioxidants, and complex therapeutic intermediaries.
• Analytical Reagent: Crucial reagent for executing the p-Anisidine Value (p-AV) test to evaluate secondary oxidation products, such as aldehydes, in dietary fats and oils.
• Polymer Additives: Employed as an antioxidant for specific polymer materials and as a functional corrosion inhibitor in industrial chemical systems.
