TCI C1483 Croconic Acid (CAS 488-86-8) is a five-membered oxocarbon acid whose conjugated ring system gives it unusually strong acidity for an organic compound. Researchers use it to prepare croconate salts, metal coordination complexes, and croconate dyes that absorb in the red to near-infrared region. It is also a reference compound in studies of oxocarbon chemistry and functional molecular materials. Supplied in 1 g and 5 g packs; store dry and protected from light, and consult the Safety Data Sheet.
