3-Oxobutanol | 590-90-9 FAQs

With an aldehyde group at the first carbon atom and a keto group at the third carbon atom, 3-oxobutanal has a four-carbon chain structure. A typical representation that emphasizes its essential functional groups is CH3-CO-CH2-CHO.

Metabolic reactions commonly produce 3-oxobutanal, a chemical molecule with ketone and aldehyde groups. Its reactive carbonyl groups make it an important component of metabolic pathways and an intermediary in many chemical reactions.

The chemical equation for oxobutanol is C4H8O2. The presence of alcohol and a carbonyl group in this molecule gives it its hydroxy ketone structure, making it chemically reactive and essential in biochemistry and organic synthesis.

Because of the aldehyde and ketone functional groups, 3-oxobutanal is very reactive. Its versatility in chemical processes is due to its ability to undertake nucleophilic addition reactions (e.g., with amines or alcohols) and to participate in condensation reactions.

In organic synthesis, 3-oxobutanal is a frequently used intermediate in creating a wide range of chemicals. Its reactive carbonyl groups make it very useful in transformations and reactions such as aldol condensations.
