CAS 1123-00-8

Cyclopentaneacetic acid

Description:

Cyclopentaneacetic acid, with the CAS number 1123-00-8, is an organic compound characterized by its cyclopentane ring structure attached to an acetic acid functional group. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid and has a distinctive odor. It is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic cyclopentane ring. Cyclopentaneacetic acid is known for its potential applications in organic synthesis, particularly as a building block in the production of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The presence of both a cyclopentane moiety and a carboxylic acid group allows for diverse reactivity, including esterification and amidation reactions. Additionally, it may exhibit moderate acidity, making it a weak acid in aqueous solutions. Safety considerations include handling it in well-ventilated areas and using appropriate personal protective equipment, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes. Overall, cyclopentaneacetic acid is a versatile compound with significant relevance in chemical research and industrial applications.

Cyclopentylacetic acid

CAS: 1123-00-8

Cyclopentylacetic acid is a fatty acid that is found in plants. It has been shown to be a potent inhibitor of HIV-1 infection, and can also inhibit the production of inflammatory prostaglandins. Cyclopentylacetic acid has been used in the treatment of autoimmune diseases, such as Crohn's disease. This drug may have genotoxic effects by forming covalent bonds with DNA and causing changes in gene expression. Cyclopentylacetic acid has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties, which may be due to its ability to inhibit prostaglandin synthesis. In addition, cyclopentylacetic acid can act as an antioxidant by scavenging reactive oxygen species and preventing lipid peroxidation.
