2,4-Diethylpentanedioic acid, with the CAS number 27899-21-4, is a dicarboxylic acid characterized by the presence of two ethyl groups attached to the second and fourth carbon atoms of a pentanedioic acid backbone. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its state at room temperature. It is soluble in polar solvents such as water and alcohols, owing to the presence of carboxylic acid functional groups, which can engage in hydrogen bonding. The presence of the ethyl groups contributes to its hydrophobic character, influencing its solubility and reactivity. 2,4-Diethylpentanedioic acid can participate in various chemical reactions typical of carboxylic acids, including esterification and amidation. Its unique structure makes it useful in organic synthesis and as a potential building block in the production of polymers and other chemical intermediates. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances, to ensure proper precautions are taken.
