Trimethyl 1,2,3-propanetricarboxylate

Description:
Trimethyl 1,2,3-propanetricarboxylate, with the CAS number 6138-26-7, is an organic compound characterized by its three carboxylate functional groups attached to a propane backbone, each esterified with a methyl group. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a fruity odor, indicative of its ester nature. It is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits low solubility in water due to its hydrophobic methyl groups. Trimethyl 1,2,3-propanetricarboxylate is used in various applications, including as a building block in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its structure allows for potential reactivity in condensation reactions and as a precursor for more complex molecules. Additionally, it may serve as a plasticizer or a flavoring agent in certain contexts. Safety data indicates that, like many esters, it should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes. Proper storage and handling protocols are essential to ensure safety and stability.
