:4-acetylbutyric acid
Description:
4-Acetylbutyric acid, with the CAS number 3128-06-1, is an organic compound characterized by its carboxylic acid functional group and an acetyl substituent on the butyric acid backbone. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor. The molecular structure consists of a four-carbon chain with a carboxylic acid group (-COOH) at one end and an acetyl group (-COCH3) attached to the fourth carbon. This compound is soluble in water and organic solvents, making it versatile for various applications. It is often used in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals and other chemical products. The presence of both the carboxylic acid and acetyl groups contributes to its reactivity, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, such as esterification and acylation. Additionally, 4-acetylbutyric acid may exhibit biological activity, although specific biological properties would require further investigation. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with any chemical substance.

CAS:<p>4-Acetylbutyric acid is a monocarboxylic acid that is synthesized from levulinate. It has been shown to be an intermediate in the biosynthesis of amides and 2,6-dihydroxybenzoic acid. The reaction is catalyzed by an enzyme called acetyl coenzyme A synthetase and requires activation energies of −7.5 kJ/mol for the conversion of levulinate to 4-acetylbutyric acid. This organic compound has a kinetic constant of 1.1 × 10 M−1s−1 at 25°C and pH 7, with a pK value of 3.9 at 25°C; it also has amines and carboxylic functional groups, as well as a carbon source requirement.</p>Formula:C6H10O3Purity:Min. 95 Area-%Color and Shape:PowderMolecular weight:130.14 g/mol4-Acetylbutyric Acid
