Uses
Citraconic anhydride (616-02-4) used as raw materials in the production of organic synthesis (preparation clothing Ping acid, clothing Ping acid amide).
Production
Citraconic anhydride (616-02-4) is also known as butyrolactone - β - carboxylic acid, tetrahydrofuran oxo-3-carboxylic acid. Gain Citraconic anhydride (Citraconic anhydride) by the way of distillation .React with alkali to get itamalic acid,and then with hydrobromic acid to produce methyl bromide succinic acid,which heated with Ammonia of methanol ,producing HOOCCH(CH2OH) CH2CONH2 ,then treat with Silver oxide Ag2O for the product of succinic acid methyl bromide .
