2-Cyclopentene-1-carboxylicacid,4-oxo-,methylester

Description:
2-Cyclopentene-1-carboxylic acid, 4-oxo-, methyl ester, with the CAS number 59895-12-4, is an organic compound characterized by its cyclopentene ring structure, which features a carboxylic acid functional group and a methyl ester. This compound typically exhibits a colorless to pale yellow appearance and is soluble in organic solvents. The presence of the cyclopentene ring contributes to its reactivity, particularly in electrophilic addition reactions due to the unsaturation in the ring. The carboxylic acid moiety provides acidic properties, while the ester group can participate in various chemical reactions, including hydrolysis and transesterification. This compound may be utilized in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of more complex molecules. Its unique structure allows for potential applications in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and materials science. As with many organic compounds, handling should be done with care, considering safety data and potential hazards associated with its use.
