Products Name: 2,3-Dibromosuccinic acid
Molecular Formula: C4H4FBr2O4
CAS No.: 526-78-3
Product Description:

2,3-Dibromosuccinic acid is a dicarboxylic acid with four carbon atoms, occurring naturally plant and animal tissues and that plays a significant role in intermediary metabolism. It is a colourless crystalline solid with a melting point of 185-187? C, soluble in water, slightly dissolved in ethanol, ether, acetone and glycerine, but not dissolved in benzene, carbon sulfide, carbon tetrachloride and oil ether. The common method of synthesis of succinic acid is the catalytic hydrogenation of maleic acid or its anhydride. Succinic acid and its derivatives are used manufacturing certain drug compounds, agricultural and food products and perfume esters.
