CAS 473-81-4

Glyceric acid

Description:

Glyceric acid, with the CAS number 473-81-4, is a simple organic compound classified as a hydroxy acid. It is a colorless, viscous liquid that is soluble in water due to its polar hydroxyl (-OH) groups. Glyceric acid is a derivative of glycerol and is characterized by the presence of both a carboxylic acid group (-COOH) and an additional hydroxyl group, which contributes to its acidic properties. This compound is known for its role in various biochemical pathways, particularly in the metabolism of carbohydrates and lipids. Glyceric acid can exist in different stereoisomeric forms, with the most common being the D- and L- forms. It is used in various applications, including as a building block in organic synthesis, in the production of pharmaceuticals, and as a potential ingredient in cosmetic formulations due to its moisturizing properties. Additionally, glyceric acid can participate in esterification reactions, making it useful in the synthesis of esters and other derivatives.

DL-Glyceric acid - 20% in Water ca. 2mol/L

CAS: 473-81-4

DL-Glyceric acid is a molecule that belongs to the group of monocarboxylic acids. It is an intermediate in the synthesis of polyglycerol, and can be used as a reagent for the synthesis of polyesters or polyurethanes. DL-Glyceric acid has been shown to inhibit the secretion of phospholipase A2 from Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains. It also inhibits bacterial growth by binding to the cell surface and inhibiting receptor activity. The reaction solution containing DL-Glyceric acid was found to have a higher affinity for cationic surfactants than for hydroxyl groups or fatty acids.
