:Pimelic acid
Description:
Pimelic acid, also known as heptanedioic acid, is a dicarboxylic acid with the chemical formula C7H12O4. It features two carboxyl (-COOH) functional groups, which contribute to its acidic properties. This compound is a colorless, crystalline solid at room temperature and is soluble in water, reflecting its polar nature due to the presence of the carboxyl groups. Pimelic acid is typically found in trace amounts in various natural sources, including certain plant oils and animal fats. It is utilized in the synthesis of various chemical compounds, including polyamides and as a precursor in the production of certain pharmaceuticals. Additionally, it can serve as a building block in organic synthesis and is studied for its potential applications in materials science. The compound has a relatively low toxicity profile, making it suitable for various industrial applications. Its melting and boiling points, along with its reactivity, are influenced by the presence of the carboxylic acid groups, which can participate in various chemical reactions, including esterification and amidation.

CAS:<p>Pimelic acid is a dicarboxylic acid that has been found to be the precursor of malonic acid in bacteria. It has an acidic nature and significant cytotoxicity, as well as a hydroxyl group that coordinates with nitrogen atoms. Pimelic acid is stable in the presence of water vapor and air, making it difficult to synthesize. These properties have made pimelic acid a topic of interest for polymer compositions. X-ray crystal structures have shown that pimelic acid is composed of six carbons, three nitrogens, one oxygen, and one hydrogen atom.</p>Formula:C7H12O4Color and Shape:PowderMolecular weight:160.17 g/molPimelic acid
