α-Ketoglutaric acid (disodium dihydrate)
α-Ketoglutaric acid disodium dihydrate, an important dicarboxylic acid, is an intermediate in the tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCC) and amino acid metabolism. α-Ketoglutaric acid disodium dihydrate can be used as building block chemical for the chemical synthesis of heterocycles, dietary supplement, component of infusion solutions and wound healing compounds, or as main component of new elastomers with a wide range of interesting mechanical and chemical properties[1].
