2,3-diethylsuccinic acid

Description:
2,3-Diethylsuccinic acid, with the CAS number 1186-79-4, is a dicarboxylic acid characterized by the presence of two ethyl groups attached to the second and third carbon atoms of the succinic acid backbone. This compound typically appears as a white crystalline solid and is soluble in polar organic solvents, while exhibiting limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic ethyl substituents. The presence of two carboxylic acid functional groups allows for potential reactivity in various chemical reactions, including esterification and amidation. Its molecular structure contributes to its properties, such as melting and boiling points, which are influenced by intermolecular forces like hydrogen bonding. 2,3-Diethylsuccinic acid can be utilized in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of various chemical compounds. Additionally, its derivatives may find applications in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and materials science. As with many organic acids, it is important to handle this substance with care, observing appropriate safety protocols to mitigate any risks associated with its use.
