4-[4-(propan-2-yl)phenyl]butanoic acid

Description:

4-[4-(Propan-2-yl)phenyl]butanoic acid, also known by its CAS number 7501-37-3, is an organic compound characterized by its structure, which includes a butanoic acid moiety attached to a phenyl group that is further substituted with an isopropyl group. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white solid and is soluble in organic solvents, while its solubility in water is limited due to its hydrophobic characteristics. It exhibits properties typical of carboxylic acids, including the ability to form hydrogen bonds and participate in acid-base reactions. The presence of the isopropyl group contributes to its steric bulk, which can influence its reactivity and interactions with biological systems. This compound may be of interest in various fields, including pharmaceuticals and materials science, due to its potential applications in drug formulation or as a building block in organic synthesis. As with many organic compounds, handling should be done with care, following appropriate safety protocols to mitigate any risks associated with exposure.
