Heptanedioic acid,4-(3-methoxy-3-oxopropyl)-4-nitro-, 1,7-dimethyl ester

Description:

Heptanedioic acid, 4-(3-methoxy-3-oxopropyl)-4-nitro-, 1,7-dimethyl ester, identified by CAS number 83935-54-0, is an organic compound characterized by its structure, which includes a heptanedioic acid backbone modified with a nitro group and a methoxy-oxopropyl substituent. This compound features two ester functional groups, resulting from the methyl esterification of the carboxylic acid groups. The presence of the nitro group introduces significant polarity and potential reactivity, while the methoxy and oxopropyl groups contribute to its overall hydrophobic character. The compound is likely to exhibit moderate solubility in organic solvents and limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic regions. Its unique structure may impart specific biological or chemical properties, making it of interest in various fields, including pharmaceuticals and materials science. Safety and handling precautions should be observed, as compounds with nitro groups can be sensitive and may pose health risks.
