4-Pentenoic acid, 2-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-, ethyl ester

Description:

4-Pentenoic acid, 2-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-, ethyl ester, identified by CAS number 122936-14-5, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group, which is formed from the reaction of 4-pentenoic acid and 2-(1,1-dimethylethyl) alcohol. This compound features a pentenoic acid backbone, indicating the presence of a double bond within a five-carbon chain, which contributes to its reactivity and potential applications in organic synthesis. The presence of the tert-butyl group (1,1-dimethylethyl) enhances its steric properties, influencing its solubility and volatility. As an ester, it is likely to exhibit typical ester characteristics, such as pleasant odors and moderate polarity, making it suitable for use in various chemical reactions, including polymerization and as a potential intermediate in the synthesis of more complex molecules. Additionally, its unique structure may impart specific properties that could be exploited in industrial applications, such as in the formulation of coatings, adhesives, or as a flavoring agent.
