In organic chemistry, a dicarboxylic acid is an organic compound containing two carboxyl groups (−COOH).The general molecular formula for dicarboxylic acids can be written as HO 2 C−R−CO 2 H, where R can be aliphatic or aromatic.
It is predominantly used as a precursor to trimethylolethane (CH 3 C(CH 2 OH) 3) through a condensation reaction with formaldehyde. This triol is an important intermediate in the production of alkyd resins. It is used in the synthesis of several common aroma compounds (cyclamen aldehyde, helional, lilial). [2]
The Vilsmaier reagent (N,N-Dimethyl(chloromethylene)ammonium chloride; [ClHC=N + (CH 3) 2]Cl −) is a highly chemoselective agent for carboxylic acid reduction. It selectively activates the carboxylic acid to give the carboxymethyleneammonium salt, which can be reduced by a mild reductant like lithium tris( t -butoxy)aluminum hydride to afford ...
Isovaleric acid, also known as 3-methylbutanoic acid or β-methylbutyric acid, is a branched-chain alkyl carboxylic acid with the chemical formula (CH 3) 2 CHCH 2 CO 2 H. It is classified as a short-chain fatty acid. Like other low-molecular-weight carboxylic acids, it has an unpleasant odor. The compound occurs naturally and can be found in ...
In organic chemistry, 3-hydroxybutanal (acetaldol, aldol) is an organic compound with the formula CH 3 CH(OH)CH 2 CHO and the structure H 3 C−CH−CH 2 −CH=O. It is classified as an aldol (R−CH(OH)−CHR'−C(=O)−R") and the word "aldol" can refer specifically to 3-hydroxybutanal. It is formally the product of the dimerization of ...
2-Methylbutanoic acid, also known as 2-methylbutyric acid is a branched-chain alkyl carboxylic acid with the chemical formula CH 3 CH 2 CH(CH 3)CO 2 H, classified as a short-chain fatty acid. It exists in two enantiomeric forms, ( R )- and ( S )-2-methylbutanoic acid.
