fumaraldehydic acid

Description:
Fumaraldehydic acid, with the CAS number 4437-06-3, is an organic compound that features both aldehyde and carboxylic acid functional groups. It is derived from fumaric acid, which is a dicarboxylic acid, and is characterized by its unsaturated structure due to the presence of a double bond between two carbon atoms. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow solid and is soluble in polar solvents such as water and alcohols. Fumaraldehydic acid is known for its reactivity, particularly in condensation reactions, where it can participate in the formation of various derivatives. Its unique structure allows it to engage in various chemical transformations, making it of interest in organic synthesis and potentially in the development of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. Additionally, the presence of both functional groups enables it to act as a versatile building block in organic chemistry. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with any chemical substance.
