Oxiranecarboxylic acid, potassium salt, (2S)-

Description:
Oxiranecarboxylic acid, potassium salt, (2S)-, also known as potassium (2S)-oxiranecarboxylate, is a chemical compound characterized by its unique structure that includes an epoxide group and a carboxylic acid functional group. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in water, which is a common trait for many salts. The presence of the potassium ion contributes to its ionic nature, enhancing its solubility and reactivity in aqueous solutions. As a derivative of oxiranecarboxylic acid, it exhibits properties associated with both carboxylic acids and epoxides, making it useful in various chemical reactions, including those involving nucleophilic attack due to the strained epoxide ring. Its applications may extend to fields such as organic synthesis, pharmaceuticals, and agrochemicals, where it can serve as an intermediate or a reagent. Safety data should be consulted for handling and usage, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper precautions are taken.
