trans-Glutaconic acid is an organic compound with formula HO₂CCH=CHCH₂CO₂H. This dicarboxylic acid exists as a colorless solid and is related to the saturated chemical glutaric acid, HO₂CC(CH₂)₃CO₂H. Esters and salts of glutaconic acid are called glutaconates.

Related compounds

The geometric isomer, cis-glutaconic acid, has a noticeably lower melting point (130–132 °C). It can be prepared by bromination of levulinic acid followed by treatment of the dibromoketone with potassium carbonate.^[1]

Glutaconic anhydride, which forms by dehydration the diacid, exists mainly as the dicarbonyl tautomer in solution. It is a colorless solid melting at 77–82 °C. Either the cis or trans diacid can be used to make it: the trans form isomerizes under the reaction conditions.^[2]

Medical aspects

Glutaric, 3-hydroxyglutaric, and glutaconic acids are structurally related metabolites. In glutaric aciduria type 1, glutaconic acid accumulates, resulting in brain damage.
