:

Butanoic acid, 4-azido-, ethyl ester

Description:
Butanoic acid, 4-azido-, ethyl ester, with the CAS number 51453-79-3, is an organic compound characterized by its azido functional group and ester linkage. It is derived from butanoic acid, where the hydrogen atom at the fourth carbon is replaced by an azido group (-N3), and the carboxylic acid is esterified with ethanol, forming an ethyl ester. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid and is known for its potential applications in organic synthesis and as a building block in the preparation of more complex molecules. The presence of the azido group imparts unique reactivity, making it useful in click chemistry and other reactions involving nucleophilic substitutions. However, due to the azido group, it may also exhibit sensitivity to heat and shock, necessitating careful handling. As with many organic compounds, it is important to consider its solubility in organic solvents and its stability under various conditions when utilizing it in laboratory or industrial settings.
