(2E)-4,4-Dimethyl-2-pentenoic acid

Description:
(2E)-4,4-Dimethyl-2-pentenoic acid, with the CAS number 16666-45-8, is an organic compound characterized by its unsaturated carboxylic acid structure. It features a pentenoic acid backbone with a double bond located between the second and third carbon atoms, and two methyl groups attached to the fourth carbon. This configuration contributes to its unique reactivity and physical properties. The compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and possesses a characteristic odor. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic alkyl groups. The presence of the carboxylic acid functional group allows it to participate in various chemical reactions, including esterification and acid-base reactions. Additionally, (2E)-4,4-Dimethyl-2-pentenoic acid can serve as an intermediate in organic synthesis and may have applications in the production of polymers or other chemical derivatives. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances.
