Product Description
2,4-Dimethoxybenzyl alcohol is an aromatic alcohol and a substrate for glucose-methanol-choline (GMC) oxidoreductase. GMC oxidoreductase has characteristics of aryl alcohol oxidases.
2,4-Dimethoxybenzyl alcohol (CAS# 7314-44-5) is a benzyl alcohol derivative with the molecular formula C9H12O3. It features two methoxy groups at the 2 and 4 positions of the benzene ring and a hydroxymethyl group. The compound is used as a protecting group in organic synthesis, particularly for the protection of alcohols and amines. As a dimethoxybenzyl alcohol, it is a useful reagent for the introduction of the 2,4-dimethoxybenzyl (DMB) protecting group. 2,4-Dimethoxybenzyl alcohol is intended for research use only and is not for human therapeutic use.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
2,4-Dimethoxybenzyl alcohol targets functional groups in organic molecules as a protecting group reagent. The compound is used to introduce the 2,4-dimethoxybenzyl (DMB) protecting group, which protects alcohols and amines during chemical synthesis. The DMB group is stable under various reaction conditions and can be removed under mild acidic conditions. The compound's methoxy groups enhance the stability and reactivity of the protecting group. Its role is purely chemical rather than biological. Further research is needed to identify any potential biological targets.
ln Vitro
In vitro studies of 2,4-Dimethoxybenzyl alcohol have focused on its role as a protecting group reagent in organic synthesis. The compound's reactivity and stability have been characterized in various chemical reactions. It is used to protect alcohols and amines during multistep synthesis. The compound's purity and identity are assessed using analytical chemistry methods. These in vitro studies provide foundational data for understanding the compound's utility in organic synthesis and chemical research.
ln Vivo
In vivo studies of 2,4-Dimethoxybenzyl alcohol are not applicable, as the compound is primarily used as a chemical reagent for organic synthesis rather than as a therapeutic agent. The compound is not intended for administration to living organisms. Its applications are limited to chemical research and synthesis. The compound is not approved for human therapeutic use and is intended for research purposes only.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro chemical assays for 2,4-Dimethoxybenzyl alcohol involve testing its reactivity as a protecting group reagent. The compound's ability to form the DMB protecting group with alcohols and amines is assessed using standard organic chemistry techniques. Reaction progress is monitored using thin-layer chromatography or high-performance liquid chromatography. The compound's purity and identity are assessed using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. All assays are performed with appropriate controls and standardized protocols to ensure reproducibility of results.
Cell Assay
In vitro cell-based assays are not applicable for 2,4-Dimethoxybenzyl alcohol, as the compound is a chemical reagent used for organic synthesis rather than a biological agent. The compound is not intended for cell-based studies as a direct pharmacological agent. Its applications are limited to chemical research and synthesis. Cell-based assays may be used to evaluate the biological activity of compounds synthesized using the DMB protecting group, but the protecting group reagent itself is not tested in cell-based systems.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal experiments are not applicable for 2,4-Dimethoxybenzyl alcohol, as the compound is a chemical reagent used for organic synthesis rather than a therapeutic agent. The compound is not administered to animals for pharmacological evaluation. Its applications are limited to chemical research and synthesis. The compound is not intended for in vivo use. All procedures involving the compound are conducted in laboratory settings for research purposes only.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
The pharmacokinetic properties of 2,4-Dimethoxybenzyl alcohol are not applicable, as the compound is a chemical reagent used for organic synthesis rather than a therapeutic agent. It has a molecular weight consistent with its formula C9H12O3. As a small aromatic alcohol, it would be metabolized through standard pathways if administered, but it is not intended for such use. The compound's physicochemical properties including solubility and stability are characterized for its use as a chemical reagent.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
The toxicity profile of 2,4-Dimethoxybenzyl alcohol has been evaluated in the context of its use as a research chemical. As an aromatic alcohol, it may have irritant properties. Proper handling procedures including use of personal protective equipment are recommended when working with pure compound. The compound is not approved for human therapeutic use and is intended for research purposes only. Long-term toxicity studies would be needed to fully establish its safety profile. The compound's use as a chemical reagent suggests it is handled under controlled conditions.

  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
