:2-Propylbutanedioic acid
Description:
2-Propylbutanedioic acid, also known as dimethylsuccinic acid, is a dicarboxylic acid characterized by its two carboxyl (-COOH) functional groups attached to a four-carbon chain with a propyl group at the second carbon position. This compound typically appears as a white crystalline solid and is soluble in water and organic solvents, making it versatile for various applications. Its molecular structure contributes to its acidity, with pKa values indicating the strength of its acidic protons. 2-Propylbutanedioic acid is used in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of polymers, pharmaceuticals, and as a building block in chemical reactions. Additionally, it can serve as a chiral auxiliary in asymmetric synthesis due to its stereogenic centers. The compound is generally considered to have low toxicity, but safety precautions should be taken when handling it in laboratory settings. Overall, 2-propylbutanedioic acid is an important compound in both industrial and research contexts due to its functional properties and reactivity.
