Description

5-Methyl-2-furancarbonylchloride (5MFCC) is a chlorinating agent that is used in organic synthesis. It is often used as a diluent for hydrogen chloride and density lipoprotein cholesterol. 5MFCC reacts with thionyl chloride to produce pentose phosphate, which is converted to aldehydes, such as acetaldehyde or benzaldehyde. These aldehydes are further reacted with lipoproteins to form activated lipid profiles. Activated lipid profiles are used in the detection of various diseases, such as atherosclerosis and diabetes mellitus.
