:2-Butenoic acid, 4-hydroxy-, ethyl ester, (E)-
Description:
2-Butenoic acid, 4-hydroxy-, ethyl ester, (E)-, also known as ethyl 4-hydroxy-2-butenoate, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group and a double bond in its butenoic acid backbone. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a fruity odor. It is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits moderate solubility in water due to the presence of the hydroxyl group. The (E)- configuration indicates that the substituents around the double bond are on opposite sides, which can influence its reactivity and interactions with other molecules. This compound is often used in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its reactivity is influenced by the presence of both the ester and hydroxyl functional groups, making it a versatile building block in chemical reactions. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances.
