Chemical Structure

Basic Info
3-(2-Furyl)acrylic acid is an α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid containing a furan ring, with a molecular formula of C₇H₆O₃. Its structure consists of a furan ring (a five-membered oxygen-containing heterocycle) connected by an acrylic acid group (-CH=CH-COOH), and has both aromatic and olefinic acid reactivity. The compound is usually light yellow crystals or powders, soluble in organic solvents (such as ethanol, ethyl acetate), slightly soluble in water, and its carboxyl group and conjugated double bonds make it easy to participate in addition, esterification and polymerization reactions.
From the perspective of chemical raw materials, 3-(2-Furyl)acrylic acid can be synthesized by the Knoevenagel condensation reaction of furan formaldehyde (2-furan aldehyde) and malonic acid (malonic acid), and can also be prepared by coupling of furan derivatives with acrylic compounds. The furan ring in its structure gives it biobased characteristics (possibly derived from renewable resources), while the acrylic part provides reaction sites with nucleophiles or metal catalysts suitable for further functionalization as intermediates in organic synthesis.
