Methyl 2-Methyl-3-oxo-3-phenylpropanoate is an intermediate in the synthesis of Pyrametostrobin (P847010), a novel fungicide. Also, it is derived from 1-Methyl-2-nitrobenzene (N572306), which is a toxic pollutant of the environment because of its large scale use in the production of explosives. It is a useful synthetic intermediate. It shows carcinogenic activity in rats. | [Synthesis Reference(s)]
