6-Methoxy-2-(4-methoxyphenyl)benzo[b]thiophene（Cat No.:R013251）is a methoxy-substituted heteroaromatic compound featuring a benzo[b]thiophene core substituted at the 2-position with a 4-methoxyphenyl group and at the 6-position with a methoxy group. This structure combines electron-rich aromatic systems and sulfur heterocycle, contributing to its potential biological activity and stability. It serves as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, particularly in estrogen receptor modulators like selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs). Its dual methoxy substitution enhances lipophilicity and may influence receptor binding, making it useful in medicinal chemistry and drug design.
