5-Methyl-2-oxohexanoic Acid
CAS:Controlled ProductFormula:C7H12O3Color and Shape:NeatMolecular weight:144.1685-Methyl-2-oxohexanoic acid
CAS:<p>5-Methyl-2-oxohexanoic acid is a long-chain carboxylic acid that is a product of the metabolism of isopropylmalate. It has been found to be an isomerase localized in the chloroplast. Biochemical tests have shown that 5-methyl-2-oxohexanoic acid inhibits the biosynthesis of glucosinolates, which are plant secondary metabolites that protect against predators and pathogens. The biochemical properties of 5-methyl-2-oxohexanoic acid have also been shown to influence the phenotype of plants. This compound has been genetically reintroduced into plants to alter their chemical defenses and produce different phenotypes.</p>Formula:C7H12O3Purity:Min. 95%Molecular weight:144.17 g/mol
