Angelic acid is a volatile solid with a biting taste and pungent sour odor.

The former can be entirely converted to the latter by boiling for about 40 hours, by reaction with ] and other acids,<ref name=b1/> by heating with a base to a temperature above 100 °C,<ref name=carrot/> or simply by storing the acid for about 25 years.<ref>, p. 92</ref> The reverse transformation occurs much less readily; it can be induced by ultraviolet light, but not with visible light. The conversion rate is low and only 0.36 g of angelic acid could be obtained from 13 g of tiglic acid after 43-day irradiation with a 500-watt lamp.

Angelic acid reacts with ] and bromine producing ] and dibromovaleric acids, respectively, with a yield of 60–70%. Chlorovaleric and iodovaleric acids are obtained using ] and ]s, respectively. The salts of angelic acid are called angelates. Angelates of ]s ''M'' have a general formula M(C<sub>5</sub>H<sub>7</sub>O<sub>2</sub>)<sub>2</sub> and form white, water-soluble crystals.<ref name=b1/> Angelic acid reacts with ] and bromine producing ] and dibromovaleric acids, respectively, with a yield of 60–70%.
