| Description | 3-Methoxyphenylacetic acid belongs to the class of organic compounds known as anisoles. 3-Methoxyphenylacetic acid is slightly soluble (in water) and a weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa).3-Methoxyphenylacetic acid (m-Methoxyphenylacetic acid), a m-hydroxyphenylacetic acid (m-OHPAA) derivative, is a phytotoxin in Rhizoctonia solani. 3-Methoxyphenylacetic acid is used to develop a toxin-mediated bioassay for resistance to rhizoctonia root rot |
