CAS 1902-01-8: Butanoic acid, 2,4-dihydroxy-3,3-dimethyl-, sodium salt (1:1)

Description:Butanoic acid, 2,4-dihydroxy-3,3-dimethyl-, sodium salt (1:1), commonly referred to as sodium 2,4-dihydroxy-3,3-dimethylbutanoate, is a sodium salt derived from butanoic acid with hydroxyl and methyl substituents. This compound features a butanoic acid backbone, which contributes to its fatty acid characteristics, while the presence of hydroxyl groups enhances its solubility in water and potential for hydrogen bonding. The sodium salt form indicates that it is likely to be more soluble in aqueous solutions compared to its acid counterpart. It may exhibit properties typical of both fatty acids and phenolic compounds, such as antimicrobial activity or antioxidant properties. The presence of multiple functional groups suggests potential applications in various fields, including pharmaceuticals, food additives, or as a biochemical reagent. Its stability and reactivity can be influenced by pH and environmental conditions, making it important to consider these factors in practical applications. Overall, this compound represents a unique intersection of fatty acid and phenolic chemistry.
