3-Furoic acid Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Description

3-Furoic acid, also known as 3-carboxyfuran or 3-furoate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as furoic acids. These are organic compounds containing a furoic acid moiety, with a structure characterized by a furan ring bearing a carboxylic acid group at the C2 or C3 carbon atom.
3-Furoic acid is an organic acid regularly occurring in urine of healthy individuals. It is used in synthesis of furan-2,5- and furan-2,4-dicarboxylic acid under solvent-free conditions via disproportionation reaction. It exhibits hypolipidemic activity in rodents. It lowers serum cholesterol and serum triglyceride levels in mice and rats.

Chemical Properties

white to light yellow crystal powde

Uses

3-Furoic acid can be used as a reactant to synthesize:
Furan-2,5- and furan-2,4-dicarboxylic acid under solvent-free conditions via disproportionation reaction.
(±)-Hyperolactone A by reacting with 2-methylbutanal.
Furo[2,3-b]pyridin-4-one-5-carboxylate ester derivatives as potential non-nucleoside inhibitors of human herpesvirus polymerases.
