1-(4-Formylphenyl)azetidine-3-carboxylic acid(CAT: R037890)is a multifunctional organic compound combining a rigid azetidine ring with both aldehyde and carboxylic acid functional groups. The para-formylphenyl substitution offers a reactive aldehyde site suitable for Schiff base formation, reductive amination, or conjugation to biomolecules, while the carboxylic acid enables further coupling in peptide or small molecule synthesis. This molecule is of interest in medicinal chemistry, fragment-based drug discovery, and structural scaffold design due to its constrained azetidine core, which can modulate biological activity and conformational flexibility.
