iso- acetovanillon ( 3-hydroxy-4-methoxyacetophenone ) is an organic chemical compound with the empirical formula C 9 H 10 O 3 , which is structurally derived from both acetophenone and guaiacol ( o-methoxyphenol ). It is a derivative of acetophenone with an additional hydroxyl and methoxy group . It differs from acetovanillon in the position of the methoxy group. Instead of position 3, this is found here in position 4. Hydroxy and methoxy groups swap places compared to acetovanillon. The structural analogy corresponds to that between vanillin and isovanillin .
A reaction of guaiacol with a previously prepared mixture of acetic anhydride and conc. Sulfuric acid (with the intermediate sulfo-acetic acid) first leads to acetyl isoacetovanillon, which is then saponified in an alkaline medium to give the desired end product iso- acetovanillon. The product forms colorless crystals that melt at 91 ° C. An aqueous solution of iron (III) chloride forms a blue-violet color with iso- acetovanillon.
