(E)-pent-3-en-1-oic acid, also known as 3-pentenoic acid, is an unsaturated carboxylic acid characterized by a five-carbon chain with a double bond located between the third and fourth carbon atoms, and a carboxylic acid functional group at one end. The "(E)" designation indicates that the substituents around the double bond are on opposite sides, which influences its geometric isomerism and reactivity. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pungent odor. It is soluble in water and organic solvents, making it versatile in various chemical applications. The presence of the double bond contributes to its reactivity, allowing it to participate in addition reactions, which are common for alkenes. As a carboxylic acid, it can also undergo typical acid-base reactions. Its derivatives and related compounds are often used in the synthesis of polymers, surfactants, and other organic materials. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this substance, as it may cause irritation to the skin and eyes.
