In organic chemistry, a methoxy group is the functional group consisting of a methyl group bound to oxygen. This alkoxy group has the formula R−O−CH 3 . On a benzene ring , the Hammett equation classifies a methoxy substituent at the para position as an electron-donating group , but as an electron-withdrawing group if at the meta position.
Methoxyflurane, sold under the brand name Penthrox among others, is an inhaled medication primarily used to reduce pain following trauma. [5] [6] It may also be used for short episodes of pain as a result of medical procedures. [4]
The enhanced nucleophilicity of anisole vs. benzene reflects the influence of the methoxy group, which renders the ring more electron-rich. The methoxy group strongly affects the pi cloud of the ring as a mesomeric electron donor, more so than as an inductive electron withdrawing group despite the electronegativity of the oxygen.
2-Methoxyethanol, or methyl cellosolve, is an organic compound with formula C 3 H 8 O 2 that is used mainly as a solvent.It is a clear, colorless liquid with an ether-like odor.

They consist of a disubstituted benzene ring with methoxy group and one methyl group. All three are colorless flammable liquids which are soluble in organic solvents but poorly soluble in water. They are not of major commercial interest although they are precursors to the corresponding methoxybenzoic acids and methoxybenzaldehydes. [1]
A new review reports that nine people taking semaglutide and tirzepatide — the active ingredient in GLP-1 medications — experienced vision issues, including three potentially blinding eye ...
Methoxy polyethylene glycol-epoetin beta, sold under the brand name Mircera, is a long-acting erythropoietin receptor activator (CERA) used for the treatment of anaemia associated with chronic kidney disease. [4] It is the first approved, chemically modified erythropoiesis-stimulating agent (ESA). [citation needed]
