Uses
3-Methoxy-4-methylaniline, afforded by an electrophilic substitution, using the 2-methoxy-substituted iron complex sail followed by oxidative cyclization with concomitant aromation of the resulting iron complex. It is used to produce 8-methoxy-7-methylalloxazine. This reaction will need solvent ethanol, H2O
General Description
Brown chunky solid.
Air & Water Reactions
Sensitive to prolonged exposure to air. Insoluble in water.
Reactivity Profile
3-METHOXY-4-METHYLANILINE neutralizes acids in weakly exothermic reactions to form salts plus water. May be incompatible with isocyanates, halogenated organics, peroxides, phenols (acidic), epoxides, anhydrides, and acid halides. May generate hydrogen, a flammable gas, in combination with strong reducing agents such as hydrides. Reacts with oxidizing agents .
Fire Hazard
3-METHOXY-4-METHYLANILINE is probably combustible.
