Butanedioic acid, 2-oxo-, 1-ethyl ester, sodium salt (1:1)

Description:
Butanedioic acid, 2-oxo-, 1-ethyl ester, sodium salt (1:1), commonly referred to as sodium ethyl 2-oxobutanedioate, is a chemical compound characterized by its structure, which includes a butanedioic acid backbone with an ethyl ester group and a sodium salt form. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white solid and is soluble in water due to the presence of the sodium ion, which enhances its solubility compared to its non-salt forms. It is often used in various applications, including as a reagent in organic synthesis and in biochemical research. The presence of the 2-oxo group indicates that it can participate in various chemical reactions, such as condensation and esterification. Additionally, the compound may exhibit properties typical of carboxylic acids and esters, including acidity and the ability to form hydrogen bonds. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper precautions are taken.
