SMILES: C(/C=C/C(C)=O)(OC)=O
Biological Activity: Methyl trans-4-oxo-2-pentenoate (Methyl (2E)-4-oxopent-2-enoate) is a heterofunctionalized dienophile containing both ketone and ester functional groups. The enone structure within the Methyl trans-4-oxo-2-pentenoate molecule makes it a highly reactive Michael acceptor capable of regioselective conjugate addition, which is commonly used in reactions for constructing complex ring systems such as the Robinson annulation. Methyl trans-4-oxo-2-pentenoate can serve as a substrate in the synthesis of α-(alkylmethylene) butyrolactone derivatives. Methyl trans-4-oxo-2-pentenoate participates in asymmetric Diels-Alder reactions promoted by chiral palladium complexes[1][2].
