:2-Hexenoic acid, 5-methyl-
Description:
2-Hexenoic acid, 5-methyl- is an unsaturated fatty acid characterized by a six-carbon chain with a double bond located at the second carbon and a methyl group attached to the fifth carbon. Its molecular formula is C7H12O2, indicating the presence of both carbon and oxygen atoms in its structure. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinct odor, which is common among fatty acids. It is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic carbon chain. The presence of the double bond contributes to its reactivity, making it susceptible to various chemical reactions, such as oxidation and polymerization. 2-Hexenoic acid, 5-methyl- can be utilized in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of various chemical compounds. Its applications may extend to the fragrance and flavor industry, as well as in the formulation of certain polymers and surfactants. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as with any chemical substance.
