Butanoic acid, 2-azido- - Introduction
2-Azidobutanoic acid(2-Azidobutanoic acid) is an organic compound whose chemical structure contains an acid chain of 4 carbon atoms and an azide group (-N3), and the molecular formula is C4H7N3O2.
2-Azidobutanoic acid is a white crystalline solid at room temperature, soluble in water and some organic solvents, and has a strong pungent odor. It is a weak acid capable of participating in acid-base reactions and forming precipitates with silver salts.
In the laboratory, 2-Azidobutanoic acid is often used as an intermediate in organic synthesis. It can be prepared by the reaction of 2-bromobutyric acid with sodium azide. In addition, it can be used as an initiator and is widely used in the fields of polymer synthesis and surface modification.
2-Azidobutanic acid needs to be handled and stored carefully, because it is a flammable substance and may cause explosion and other hazards. The powder or solution should be kept away from fire and high temperature, and strictly follow the safety procedures. Wear protective glasses and gloves during use to avoid direct contact with the skin and breathing its vapors.
