Tetrolic acid (water, ethanol) and may be recrystallized from non polar solvents (such as heptane, toluene). The compound is a white crystalline solid which can exist in two polymorphous crystalline forms. The proton nuclear magnetic resonance (H-NMR) spectrum in deuterated dimethyl sulfoxide shows a characteristic singlet peak at 1.99 ppm corresponding to the -CH protons. Tetrolic acid Tetrolic acid (2-butynoic acid) is a short-chain unsaturated carboxylic acid, described by the formula CH-C≡C-COH. Salts and esters of tetrolic acid are known as tetrolates. The first reported synthesis of tetrolic acid is believed to be by German chemist Johann Georg Anton Geuther in 1871
