2-OXO-4-PHENYL-BUT-3-ENOIC ACID

Description:
2-Oxo-4-phenyl-but-3-enoic acid, also known as phenylpyruvic acid, is an organic compound characterized by its structure, which features a phenyl group attached to a butenoic acid backbone with a keto group at the second carbon. This compound typically appears as a white to pale yellow solid and is soluble in organic solvents. It exhibits acidic properties due to the carboxylic acid functional group, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, including esterification and decarboxylation. The presence of the phenyl group contributes to its aromatic characteristics, influencing its reactivity and potential applications in organic synthesis. Additionally, 2-oxo-4-phenyl-but-3-enoic acid is of interest in biochemical studies, particularly in relation to metabolic pathways and disorders, such as phenylketonuria, where its derivatives may play a role. Its unique structure and properties make it a valuable compound in both research and industrial applications, particularly in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals.
