Product Information

• Name: Cicrotoic acid
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Cicrotoic acid is a synthetic, non-steroidal compound that has been shown to have functional group activating properties. Cicrotoic acid activates amines by reacting with the amino group, and can be used in the synthesis of amine-containing molecules. The molecule also reacts with fatty acids to form esters. This property may be useful for producing polymers with desirable properties such as occlusiveness. Cicrotoic acid has been shown to have a strong effect on humans, and has been studied for its use in nasal decongestants because of its ability to reduce swelling in the nose.
