CAS 372-09-8

Cyanoacetic acid

Description:

Cyanoacetic acid, with the CAS number 372-09-8, is a colorless to pale yellow liquid that is known for its distinctive properties and applications in organic synthesis. It features both a cyano group (-CN) and a carboxylic acid group (-COOH), making it a versatile compound in the field of chemistry. The presence of the cyano group contributes to its reactivity, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic additions and condensation reactions. Cyanoacetic acid is soluble in water and organic solvents, which enhances its utility in laboratory settings. It is primarily used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other organic compounds. Additionally, it can serve as a building block for the preparation of heterocyclic compounds. Due to its potential toxicity and the presence of the cyano group, handling cyanoacetic acid requires appropriate safety precautions, including the use of personal protective equipment and proper ventilation.

Cyanoacetic acid - 70% aqueous solution

CAS: 372-09-8

Cyanoacetic acid is an antimicrobial agent that can be used for the treatment of bowel disease, autoimmune diseases, and eye disorders. Cyanoacetic acid is a substrate molecule for sodium carbonate, which can be used to produce sodium carbonate by reacting with water. The reaction solution is then added to human serum or malonic acid to produce sodium carbonate, which can be used as a drug. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy has been used as a tool to study the mechanism of cyanoacetic acid in treating inflammatory bowel disease.

Cyanoacetic acid

CAS: 372-09-8

Cyanoacetic acid is a reactive molecule that contains a hydroxyl group, an electrochemical double bond, and two carbonyl groups. It is also a pharmacological agent and a substrate molecule for many reactions. Cyanoacetic acid has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties in human serum by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins. It also inhibits the enzyme fatty acid synthase, which may be responsible for the reduction in arachidonic acid levels in patients with autoimmune diseases. This compound has been used as a treatment for eye disorders such as pterygium and conjunctivitis.
