2-(2-Carboxyethenyl)benzoic acid

Description:
2-(2-Carboxyethenyl)benzoic acid, also known as 2-(2-Carboxyvinyl)benzoic acid, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure and the presence of both carboxylic acid and vinyl functional groups. It features a benzoic acid moiety with a vinyl group substituted at the ortho position relative to the carboxylic acid. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in polar solvents due to its carboxylic acid group. Its chemical properties include the ability to participate in various reactions such as esterification and polymerization, making it useful in organic synthesis and materials science. The presence of the carboxylic acid group allows it to act as a weak acid, contributing to its reactivity and potential applications in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, its structural features may impart specific biological activities, which can be of interest in medicinal chemistry. As with many organic compounds, handling should be done with care, considering safety data and potential hazards.
