4-Methyl-1-cyclohexene-1-carboxylic acid

Description:
4-Methyl-1-cyclohexene-1-carboxylic acid is an organic compound characterized by its cyclohexene ring structure, which features a methyl group and a carboxylic acid functional group. This compound is a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and is known for its distinctive odor. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to the hydrophobic nature of the cyclohexene ring. The presence of the carboxylic acid group imparts acidic properties, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, such as esterification and amidation. Additionally, the compound can undergo polymerization reactions due to the presence of the double bond in the cyclohexene structure. Its applications may include use in organic synthesis, as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals, or in the formulation of specialty chemicals. Safety data indicates that, like many organic acids, it should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation to the skin and eyes.
