General description
Glutaconic acid, also known as 2-pentenedioic acid, is an unsaturated dicarboxylic acid. It is formed as one of the degradation products during the partial wet oxidation (PWO) of alkali lignin. The analysis of its crystal structure indicates that the compound exists predominantly in the trans-conformation. The geometric bond lengths and bond angles of glutaconic acid have been obtained using Hartree–Fock (HF), density functional calculations and IR spectral data.
Application
Glutaconic acid has been used in the preparation of CoA-substrate glutaconyl-CoA by reacting with acetyl-CoA. It may be used in the preparation of 6-chloro-2(2H)-pyranone by reacting with phosphorus pentachloride (PCl5).

The decarboxylation of glutaconyl-CoA to crotonyl-CoA in the anaerobic bacterium Acidaminococcus fermentans is catalysed by a membrane-bound, biotin-dependent enzyme which requires Na+ for activity. Inverted vesicles from A. fermentans accumulated Na+ only if glutaconyl-CoA was decarboxylated. The Na+ uptake was
