C9H9NO3

C9H9NO3 is a molecular formula that represents several different organic compounds, each having a unique structure and properties. It signifies that each molecule contains 9 carbon atoms, 9 hydrogen atoms, 1 nitrogen atom, and 3 oxygen atoms. Due to the arrangement and bonding of these atoms varying widely, C9H9NO3 does not refer to a single substance but rather a class of isomers.

Possible compounds represented by the formula C9H9NO3 include, but are not limited to, derivatives of cinnamic acid, phenylalanines, and other aromatic compounds containing both amine and carboxylic acid functional groups. The specific properties of any compound with this molecular formula, such as its melting point, boiling point, solubility, and reactivity, are entirely dependent on its particular structural arrangement. Therefore, identifying a substance solely by its molecular formula is insufficient for determining its identity and requires further spectroscopic or chemical analysis to establish its precise structure. The presence of nitrogen and oxygen suggests potential biological activity for some of these isomers, depending on their specific structure and interaction with biological systems.
