Pterin-6-carboxylic acid

Description:
Pterin-6-carboxylic acid, with the CAS number 948-60-7, is a chemical compound that belongs to the pterin family, which are bicyclic compounds containing a pyrimidine and an imidazole ring. This substance is characterized by the presence of a carboxylic acid functional group at the 6-position of the pterin structure, which contributes to its acidic properties. Pterin-6-carboxylic acid is typically a white to pale yellow solid and is soluble in water and polar organic solvents, reflecting its polar nature due to the carboxylic acid group. It plays a role in biological systems, particularly in the metabolism of folates and other pterin derivatives. The compound is of interest in biochemical research and may have applications in studying enzymatic reactions and metabolic pathways. Its stability and reactivity can be influenced by pH and the presence of other chemical species, making it a relevant subject of study in both organic chemistry and biochemistry.
