:2-methylcyclopentanecarboxylic acid
Description:
2-Methylcyclopentanecarboxylic acid, with the CAS number 5454-78-4, is a cyclic carboxylic acid characterized by a cyclopentane ring substituted with a methyl group and a carboxylic acid functional group. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on the temperature and purity. It has a molecular formula of C7H12O2 and features a molecular structure that includes a five-membered carbon ring with a carboxylic acid (-COOH) group and a methyl (-CH3) group attached to the ring. The presence of the carboxylic acid group imparts acidic properties, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, such as esterification and decarboxylation. Additionally, 2-methylcyclopentanecarboxylic acid may exhibit moderate solubility in polar solvents like water and higher solubility in organic solvents. Its unique structure makes it of interest in organic synthesis and potential applications in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances.
