Maleic anhydride-13C4 is a stable, colorless to pale yellow solid that is a derivative of maleic anhydride, which is a cyclic anhydride of maleic acid. The "13C4" designation indicates that this compound is a carbon-13 isotopologue, meaning that it contains four carbon-13 isotopes, which are used in various applications, particularly in NMR spectroscopy and tracer studies. Maleic anhydride itself is known for its reactivity, particularly in Diels-Alder reactions and as a building block in the synthesis of various polymers, resins, and agricultural chemicals. It has a high melting point and is soluble in organic solvents, making it useful in chemical synthesis. The presence of the anhydride functional group contributes to its electrophilic character, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, including hydrolysis and addition reactions. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it can be irritating to the skin and respiratory system.
