:Sodium phenylacetate
Description:
Sodium phenylacetate is an organic compound with the chemical formula C8H9NaO2. It appears as a white to off-white crystalline powder and is the sodium salt of phenylacetic acid. This compound is soluble in water and exhibits hygroscopic properties, meaning it can absorb moisture from the air. Sodium phenylacetate is primarily used in pharmaceutical applications, particularly as a component in certain medications and as a potential treatment for urea cycle disorders. It serves as a source of phenylacetate, which can help in the detoxification of ammonia in the body. Additionally, it has applications in biochemical research and as a reagent in organic synthesis. The compound is generally considered to have low toxicity, but safety precautions should be taken when handling it, as with any chemical substance. Its stability under normal conditions makes it suitable for various formulations, although it should be stored in a cool, dry place to maintain its integrity.
