(3,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)acetic acid(CAT: R055972), also known as Homoveratric Acid, is an aromatic carboxylic acid featuring a dimethoxy-substituted phenyl ring and an acetic acid side chain. It is a key intermediate in the synthesis of various bioactive compounds, particularly those targeting the central nervous system. Homoveratric acid is commonly used in the preparation of dopamine analogs, alkaloids, and cardiovascular agents. Its methoxy groups enhance lipophilicity and electronic properties, making it suitable for structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies.
