CIS-ACONITIC ACID Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

WHITE TO ALMOST WHITE POWDER

Uses

cis-Aconitic acid is used as an intermediate in the production of substances pharmaceuticals. It is widely used in chemical research and as reagent. It acts as a cis-isomer of aconitic acid.

Uses

cis-Aconitic acid can be used as a standard for the determination of organic acids in plant tissues.

Uses

cis-Aconitic Acid is the cis-isomer of Aconitic Acid. The conjugate base of cis-Aconitic Acid is an intermediate in the isomerization of citrate and isocitrate in the citric acid cycle.

Definition

ChEBI: The cis-isomer of aconitic acid.

General Description

This substance is a primary reference substance with assigned absolute purity (considering chromatographic purity, water, residual solvents, inorganic impurities). The exact value can be found on the certificate. Produced by PhytoLab GmbH & Co. KG

Purification Methods

Crystallise the cis-acid from water by cooling (solubility is 1g in 2mL of water at 25o). Dry it in a vacuum desiccator. [Beilstein 2 IV 2405.]
