5-Hexynoic acid

Description:

5-Hexynoic acid is an alkyne carboxylic acid characterized by its linear chain structure, featuring a triple bond between the fifth and sixth carbon atoms. It has the molecular formula C6H10O2, indicating the presence of a carboxylic acid functional group (-COOH) at one end of the carbon chain. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic carbon chain. 5-Hexynoic acid can participate in various chemical reactions, including esterification and amidation, making it useful in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, its unique structure allows for potential applications in materials science and polymer chemistry. Safety data indicates that it should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation to the skin and eyes. Proper safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment, are recommended when working with this compound.

5-Hexynoic acid

CAS: 53293-00-8

5-Hexynoic acid is a chemical compound that has been shown to have anticancer properties. The mechanism of action is not fully understood, but it may be due to its ability to inhibit an enzyme called irreversible acetylcholinesterase, which is involved in the production of several pro-inflammatory mediators. 5-Hexynoic acid has also been shown to inhibit the growth of prostate cancer cells and can be used as a therapeutic agent for prostate cancer. It is synthesized by plants and some microorganisms, although it is not found in humans. 5-Hexynoic acid can be produced from conjugates with glutamic acid or oxalyl chloride in an acidic environment.
