(2Z)-2-bromobut-2-enedioic acid

Description:

(2Z)-2-bromobut-2-enedioic acid, also known as bromosuccinic acid, is an organic compound characterized by its double bond and bromine substituent. It features a butenedioic acid backbone, which consists of a four-carbon chain with two carboxylic acid groups at the terminal positions and a bromine atom attached to the second carbon in the Z configuration. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow solid and is soluble in water and organic solvents, reflecting its polar nature due to the carboxylic acid groups. The presence of the bromine atom enhances its reactivity, making it useful in various chemical syntheses, including the preparation of other organic compounds. Its structure allows for potential applications in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, as well as in the study of biochemical pathways. As with many brominated compounds, it should be handled with care due to potential toxicity and environmental concerns.
