:2-(1-Methylethyl)propanedioic acid
Description:
2-(1-Methylethyl)propanedioic acid, also known as diethyl malonate, is an organic compound characterized by its dicarboxylic acid structure. It features two carboxyl functional groups (-COOH) attached to a propane backbone, specifically at the second carbon, which is also substituted with an isopropyl group. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a fruity odor. It is soluble in water and polar organic solvents, making it versatile for various chemical reactions. The presence of the two carboxylic acid groups allows for the formation of esters and other derivatives, making it useful in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, it can participate in condensation reactions and is often employed in the synthesis of complex molecules through methods such as the malonic ester synthesis. Its reactivity and functional groups make it a valuable intermediate in organic chemistry. Safety data indicates that it should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes.
