2-Heptynoic acid

Description:
2-Heptynoic acid is an alkyne carboxylic acid characterized by its unique structure, which includes a triple bond between the second and third carbon atoms in a seven-carbon chain. This compound has a molecular formula of C7H12O2 and features a carboxylic acid functional group (-COOH) at one end of the carbon chain. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinct odor. The presence of the triple bond contributes to its reactivity, making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis. 2-Heptynoic acid is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic carbon chain. Its boiling point and melting point are influenced by the length of the carbon chain and the presence of the carboxylic acid group. This compound can undergo various chemical reactions, including esterification and reduction, making it valuable in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other organic compounds. Safety precautions should be taken when handling it, as it may cause irritation to the skin and eyes.
