Methyl phenylacetate, also known as phenyl acetic acid methyl ester, is a colorless liquid with a sweet, floral odor. It is commonly used in perfumes and cosmetics as a fragrance ingredient. It is also a precursor to other organic compounds. Methyl phenylacetate can be synthesized by esterification of phenylacetic acid with methanol. The compound has been studied for its potential medicinal properties, particularly as an anti-inflammatory agent. It is also used in research as a model compound for studying the metabolism of aromatic compounds.'
