Metabolite Identification
Common Name3,4,5-Trimethoxycinnamic acid
Description3,4,5-Trimethoxycinnamic acid, also known as 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenylacrylate or O-methylsinapate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as coumaric acids and derivatives. These are aromatic compounds containing Aromatic compounds containing a cinnamic acid moiety (or a derivative thereof) hydroxylated at the C2 (ortho-), C3 (meta-), or C4 (para-) carbon atom of the benzene ring. 3,4,5-Trimethoxycinnamic acid exists as a solid, possibly soluble (in water), and an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa) molecule.
