Propanedioic acid, 2-methyl-, sodium salt (1:2)

Description:
Propanedioic acid, 2-methyl-, sodium salt (1:2), commonly known as sodium 2-methylmalonate, is a sodium salt derived from 2-methylmalonic acid. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline powder and is soluble in water, which facilitates its use in various applications. It is characterized by its ability to act as a buffering agent and is often utilized in biochemical research and organic synthesis. The presence of the sodium ion enhances its stability and solubility compared to its acid form. As a dicarboxylic acid derivative, it possesses two carboxyl functional groups, which contribute to its reactivity and potential as a building block in organic synthesis. Additionally, it may play a role in metabolic pathways, particularly in the context of certain enzymatic reactions. Safety data indicates that, like many chemical substances, it should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes. Overall, sodium 2-methylmalonate is a versatile compound with applications in both research and industrial settings.
