:Methylmalonic acid
Description:
Methylmalonic acid (MMA) is a dicarboxylic acid with the chemical formula C5H8O4 and a CAS number of 516-05-2. It is a colorless, crystalline solid that is soluble in water and polar organic solvents. MMA is characterized by the presence of two carboxylic acid groups (-COOH) and a branched carbon chain, which contributes to its reactivity and biological significance. It plays a crucial role in metabolism, particularly in the conversion of certain amino acids and fatty acids, and is a key intermediate in the metabolism of vitamin B12. Elevated levels of methylmalonic acid in the body can indicate a deficiency in vitamin B12, leading to various metabolic disorders. In addition to its biological importance, methylmalonic acid is also used in organic synthesis and as a building block for various chemical compounds. Its derivatives have applications in pharmaceuticals and materials science, highlighting its versatility in both biological and industrial contexts.

CAS:<p>Methylmalonic acid is a metabolite of the vitamin B12. It is formed from homocysteine via the enzyme methylmalonyl-CoA mutase, which converts it to methylmalonic acid. Methylmalonic acid can be detected in the blood and urine and is used as a diagnostic tool for metabolic diseases such as bowel disease and cobalamin deficiency. The rate constant (k) for the conversion of methylmalonic acid to methylmalonate has been determined by gas chromatography with mass spectrometry analysis. The analytical method involves derivatization with an organic solvent, followed by chromatographic analysis. This compound has been shown to cause neuronal death in rats and may lead to peripheral neuropathy in humans.</p>Formula:C4H6O4Color and Shape:PowderMolecular weight:118.09 g/molMethylmalonic acid
