4-Methoxystyrene

Usage: It can be used as an intermediate in organic synthesis; through cyclization reactions and functional group transformations, it can synthesize analogs of natural products such as coumarins and flavonoids. It can also serve as a monomer for polymer synthesis, used to prepare polymer materials with specific properties. Additionally, it is an aggregation pheromone of locusts; detecting its content holds promise for preventing and warning of locust plagues, providing biological means for locust control. At the same time, it also has applications in the field of ophthalmic materials; silicone hydrogel contact lenses containing this substance can provide excellent oxygen permeability.
