5-Methyloctanoic acid

CAS: 60218-42-0

5-Methyloctanoic acid is a fatty acid that has been shown to cause depression, damage and depression in the bladder. It is not active against bacteria or fungi. 5-Methyloctanoic acid is an enantiomer of octanoic acid, which is a dianion with two chiral centers. 5-Methyloctanoic acid can be found in the form of a racemic mixture of both its enantiomers, or as one pure enantiomer. The configuration of the molecule will determine whether it exhibits right- or left-handed chirality.
