:2-Heptenoic acid, 2-methyl-
Description:
2-Heptenoic acid, 2-methyl- is an unsaturated fatty acid characterized by a double bond in its carbon chain, specifically located at the second carbon position. This compound features a total of seven carbon atoms, with a methyl group attached to the second carbon, contributing to its branched structure. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor, typical of fatty acids. The presence of the double bond imparts reactivity, making it susceptible to various chemical reactions, such as hydrogenation and polymerization. 2-Heptenoic acid, 2-methyl- is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. It is used in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of various chemical compounds. Additionally, its structural characteristics may influence its physical properties, such as boiling point and melting point, which are typical of unsaturated fatty acids. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as with any chemical substance.
