CAS 23229-72-3: 5-ethylthiophene-2-carboxylic acid

Description: 5-Ethylthiophene-2-carboxylic acid is an organic compound characterized by its thiophene ring structure, which is a five-membered aromatic heterocycle containing sulfur. The presence of an ethyl group at the 5-position and a carboxylic acid functional group at the 2-position contributes to its unique chemical properties. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. It is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits moderate polarity due to the carboxylic acid group. The compound can participate in various chemical reactions, including esterification and decarboxylation, making it useful in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, its thiophene structure may impart interesting electronic properties, making it a candidate for applications in organic electronics and materials science. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as with all chemical substances, to ensure proper precautions are taken.
