DL-MALIC-2,3,3-D3 ACID

Description:

DL-Malic-2,3,3-D3 acid, with the CAS number 104596-63-6, is a deuterated form of malic acid, which is a naturally occurring organic compound. It is characterized by the presence of deuterium isotopes at specific positions in its molecular structure, which can be useful in various scientific applications, particularly in NMR spectroscopy and metabolic studies. Malic acid itself is a dicarboxylic acid with two carboxyl functional groups, contributing to its acidic properties. It is soluble in water and exhibits a slightly tart flavor, commonly found in fruits such as apples. The deuterated version, DL-Malic-2,3,3-D3 acid, is utilized in research to trace metabolic pathways and study biochemical processes due to the unique properties of deuterium. Its stability and reactivity are similar to that of non-deuterated malic acid, making it a valuable compound in both organic chemistry and biochemistry.
