Transcription
Preparation and structure
The salt forms upon half-neutralization of acetic acid followed by evaporation of the solution. It can be viewed as the result of homoassociation, an effect that enhances the acidity of acetic acid in concentrated solution:
- 2 CH3CO2H + NaOH → Na+[(CH3CO2)2H]− + H2O
Also described as the sodium acid salt of acetic acid, it is best described as the sodium salt of the hydrogen-bonded anion (CH3CO2)2H−. The O···O distance is about 2.47 angstrom.[2] The species has no significant existence in solution but forms stable crystals.
Applications
As a food additive,[3] it has E number E262 and is used to impart a salt and vinegar flavor.
