Glutaconaldehyde

Glutaconaldehyde is an organic compound with the formula C5H6O2. It is an unsaturated dialdehyde as is related to glutaraldehyde and glutaconic acid, but exists in its enol form due to the conjugation with the double bond.

Both the sodium and potassium salts of glutaconaldehyde are known. They are efficiently synthesized from pyridinium sulfonate.{{cite journal Über den Abbau des Pyridins zu Glutaconsäuredialdehyd und dessen Rückverwandlung in Pyridin (I.)| author = Baumgarten, P.

The reaction of the glutaconaldehyde anion with acid chlorides gives the corresponding enol esters. Glutaconaldehyde can also be converted to the corresponding vinyl bromide as shown below.{{cite journal
