trans-cyclopropane-1,2,3-tricarboxylic acid

Description:
Trans-cyclopropane-1,2,3-tricarboxylic acid, also known as citric acid's structural isomer, is a cyclic tricarboxylic acid characterized by its three carboxyl (-COOH) groups attached to a cyclopropane ring. This compound is notable for its unique three-dimensional structure, which influences its chemical reactivity and interactions. It is a colorless, crystalline solid that is soluble in water, exhibiting acidic properties due to the presence of the carboxylic acid groups. The trans configuration of the carboxyl groups contributes to its stability and potential applications in organic synthesis and as a biochemical intermediate. In terms of reactivity, it can participate in various chemical reactions, including esterification and decarboxylation. Its structural features make it a subject of interest in studies related to organic chemistry and biochemistry, particularly in the context of metabolic pathways and the synthesis of more complex molecules. Overall, trans-cyclopropane-1,2,3-tricarboxylic acid serves as an important compound in both academic research and potential industrial applications.
