2,2,2-Triiodoacetic acid

Description:
2,2,2-Triiodoacetic acid is a halogenated acetic acid derivative characterized by the presence of three iodine atoms attached to the second carbon of the acetic acid structure. Its molecular formula is C2H3I3O2, and it features a carboxylic acid functional group, which contributes to its acidic properties. This compound is typically a white crystalline solid at room temperature and is soluble in polar solvents. Due to the presence of multiple iodine atoms, 2,2,2-triiodoacetic acid exhibits significant biological activity and has been studied for its potential applications in medical imaging and as a contrast agent in radiology. The iodine atoms enhance the compound's X-ray opacity, making it useful in diagnostic procedures. Additionally, it may exhibit antimicrobial properties, although its use is subject to regulatory scrutiny due to the potential toxicity associated with halogenated compounds. Proper handling and disposal are essential to mitigate environmental and health risks.

    Triiodoacetic acid

    CAS:
    Triiodoacetic acid is a potent antagonist that inhibits the polymerase chain reaction by binding to the hydroxyl group of nucleic acids. It is used in water treatment, such as wastewater treatment, or in fertility studies. Triiodoacetic acid is also used for the activation of polymerase chain reaction and in cell culture experiments. The biological effects of triiodoacetic acid are not well known, but it has been shown to inhibit mammalian cell growth.
