Description:

1-Propanaminium, 3-carboxy-2-(4-carboxy-3-methyl-1-oxobutoxy)-N,N,N-trimethyl-, chloride, identified by CAS number 821794-55-2, is a quaternary ammonium compound characterized by its complex structure that includes multiple functional groups. This substance features a propanaminium backbone with three methyl groups attached to the nitrogen atom, enhancing its solubility in polar solvents. The presence of carboxylic acid groups contributes to its acidic properties, while the oxobutoxy moiety suggests potential reactivity and interactions with other molecules. As a chloride salt, it is likely to exhibit ionic characteristics, influencing its behavior in solution. This compound may have applications in various fields, including pharmaceuticals, where its unique structure could provide specific biological activities or serve as a surfactant due to its amphiphilic nature. Its stability, solubility, and reactivity would depend on the pH and the presence of other ions in the environment. Further studies would be necessary to fully elucidate its properties and potential applications.
