GLUTARIC ACID FOR SYNTHESIS
GLUTARIC ACID FOR SYNTHESIS
Layman's explanation: Glutaric acid is a colorless liquid and white crystals as a solid occurring in plants and animal tissues. It is used in organic synthesis and as an intermediate for the manufacture of polymers such as polyamides and polyesters, ester plasticizers and corrosion inhibitors.
Glutaric acid can be prepared by the ring-opening of butyrolactone with potassium cyanide to give the mixed potassium carboxylate-nitrile that is hydrolyzed to the diacid. ... It can also be prepared from reacting 1,3-dibromopropane with sodium or potassium cyanide to obtain the dinitrile, followed by hydrolysis.
Glutaric acid is formed from the catabolism of lysine, hydroxylysine, and tryptophan so therapy includes restricting these amino acids from the protein part of the diet.
