:1-Propene-1,2,3-tricarboxylic acid, monoethyl ester
Description:
1-Propene-1,2,3-tricarboxylic acid, monoethyl ester, also known as ethyl citraconate, is an organic compound characterized by its structure, which includes a propene backbone with three carboxylic acid groups and an ethyl ester functional group. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a fruity odor. It is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits moderate solubility in water. The presence of multiple carboxylic acid groups contributes to its acidity and reactivity, making it useful in various chemical reactions, including esterification and polymerization processes. Ethyl citraconate can serve as a building block in the synthesis of more complex molecules and is often utilized in the production of polymers, resins, and plasticizers. Additionally, its derivatives may find applications in the food and fragrance industries due to their potential flavoring and scent properties. Safety data indicates that, like many organic compounds, it should be handled with care to avoid skin and eye irritation.
