Uses

6-Methylsalicylic acid is the secondary metabolite that could be isolated from some fungi. 6-Methylsalicylic acid can be used as building blocks for synthesis of antibacterial and anti-inflammatory agents[1].

Definition

ChEBI: 6-methylsalicylic acid is a monohydroxybenzoic acid that is salicylic acid in which the hydrogen ortho to the carboxylic acid group is substituted by a methyl group. It has a role as a Penicillium metabolite and a plant metabolite. It is functionally related to a salicylic acid. It is a conjugate acid of a 6-methylsalicylate.
