Toluic acid, also known as methylbenzoic acid, is a colorless, crystalline solid with a faint aromatic odor.
It is derived from the oxidation of toluene and is used in the production of dyes, perfumes, and pharmaceuticals.
Toluic acid is sparingly soluble in water but readily soluble in organic solvents.
The methyl group in toluic acid makes it more resistant to oxidation than benzoic acid.
