1,2,3-Trimethoxybenzene

1,2,3-Trimethoxybenzene is a model compound of lignin. 1,2,3-Trimethoxybenzene can potentially serve as a biomarker for certain foods due to its presence in tea. 1,2,3-Trimethoxybenzene can be used as a drug intermediate for synthesizing 2,6-dimethoxy-1,4-benzoquinone (HY-N1677) [1][2].
