Used in the synthesis of functional polymers and resins due to its reactive vinyl group and methoxy functionality. Commonly employed as a monomer in copolymerization reactions to produce materials with tailored thermal, optical, and electronic properties. Finds application in photoresists and lithography processes in microelectronics. Also utilized in the preparation of molecularly imprinted polymers for sensor development and separation technologies. Its aromatic structure with electron-donating methoxy group makes it suitable for use in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals.
