:4-Methylheptanedioic acid
Description:
4-Methylheptanedioic acid, also known as 2,2-dimethylsuccinic acid, is a dicarboxylic acid characterized by its two carboxyl (-COOH) functional groups attached to a seven-carbon chain with a methyl group at the fourth carbon position. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow solid and is soluble in polar solvents like water and alcohols due to the presence of the carboxylic acid groups. Its molecular structure contributes to its properties, including moderate acidity, which can influence its reactivity in various chemical reactions, such as esterification and amidation. 4-Methylheptanedioic acid is utilized in organic synthesis and can serve as a building block in the production of polymers, pharmaceuticals, and agrochemicals. Additionally, it may exhibit biological activity, making it of interest in biochemical research. Safety data indicates that, like many organic acids, it should be handled with care to avoid irritation to skin and eyes.
