4-Ketopimelic acid
CAS:<p>4-Ketopimelic acid is an organic compound with the chemical formula CH3COOH. It is a polycarboxylic acid, which means it has two carboxyl groups. 4-Ketopimelic acid is produced by the dehydration of pimelic acid and is used as a clinical agent for the treatment of corynebacterium. 4-Ketopimelic acid can be synthesized by solid-phase synthesis or electrochemical methods. The latter method involves oxidation of 4-ketohexanoic acid and reduction of methyl ethyl ketone, which gives 4-ketopimelic acid. This compound can also be synthesized from diacids, such as succinic anhydride and maleic anhydride, or chromobacterium violaceum.</p>Formula:C7H10O5Purity:Min. 95%Color and Shape:White PowderMolecular weight:174.15 g/mol4-Oxoheptanedioic Acid
