2,5-Dimethyl-4-aminobenzoic acid (CAS 619-87-4; C9H11NO2) is a specialized aromatic amine intermediate synthesized via nitration and reduction of xylenol derivatives. It serves as a critical building block for high-performance polymers.
Requires storage in sealed containers under inert atmosphere to prevent oxidation. Personnel must use PPE including nitrile gloves and respiratory protection due to potential skin sensitization and toxicity upon inhalation.
