Applications
OccurrenceReported found in strawberry
Usestrans-2-Methyl-2-pentenoic Acid is an unsaturated analog of the anticonvulsant Valproic Acid (V094750) and is used for aroma characterization of different beers with different hops.
General DescriptionAdsorption and desorption of trans-2-methyl-2-pentenoic acid in dichloromethane has been investigated by using in situ attenuated total reflection infrared spectroscopy. Asymmetric hydrogenation of trans-2-methyl-2-pentenoic acid in hexane over two well defined E-40692 and E-5220 Engelhard Pd/Al2O3 catalysts modified with cinchonidine has been studied.
Preparation methods
PreparationBy distillation of 2-hydroxy-2-methylvaleric acid (cis-form).
