Methyl salicylate does not stain teeth. Some carboxylic acid derivatives such as sodium salicylate are prepared using by the Kolbe-Schmitt reaction. Numerous plants produce methyl salicylate in very small amounts. Salsalate is a medication that belongs to the salicylate and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) classes. The reaction between the two chemicals is catalyzed by a base, usually sodium salicylate. This original formula is a medium pink in color, with a teaberry (methyl salicylate) flavor.
