:4-(1-methylcyclopropyl)butanoic acid
Description:
4-(1-Methylcyclopropyl)butanoic acid is an organic compound characterized by its carboxylic acid functional group and a unique cyclopropyl substituent. This compound features a butanoic acid backbone, which consists of a four-carbon chain terminating in a carboxylic acid group, with a 1-methylcyclopropyl group attached to the fourth carbon. The presence of the cyclopropyl ring introduces strain and contributes to the compound's reactivity and potential biological activity. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and temperature. The compound is likely to exhibit moderate solubility in organic solvents and limited solubility in water due to the hydrophobic cyclopropyl group. Its chemical properties may include the ability to undergo typical carboxylic acid reactions, such as esterification and decarboxylation. Additionally, the unique structure may impart specific pharmacological properties, making it of interest in medicinal chemistry and drug development. Safety data should be consulted for handling and usage, as with all chemical substances.
