PROPIONIC ACID (13C3) - Introduction
Propionic acid-13C3 refers to Propionic acid in which the carbon (C) atoms of the molecule are all labeled with the 13C isotope. The following is a description of the nature, use, preparation and safety information of the Propionic acid-13C3:
Nature:
The chemical formula of Propionic acid-13C3 is 13CH3CH2COOH, and the relative molecular mass is 90.06g/mol. It is a colorless liquid with a pungent odor. Propionic acid-13C3 are soluble in water and many organic solvents at room temperature.
Use:
Because Propionic acid-13C3 is labeled with 13C isotope, it is often used in isotope tracing experiments and research. Propionic acid-13C3 can be used as isotopically labeled substances for the Study of metabolic pathways, drug metabolism and environmental science.
Preparation Method:
The preparation of Propionic acid-13C3 is usually achieved by synthetic routes. A common method is to convert an appropriate amount of ethylene to propionic acid by oxidation, and 13C isotopically labeled acetic acid or other corresponding compound as a reactant. The specific synthesis method can be adjusted according to laboratory conditions and needs.
Safety Information:
Propionic acid-13C3 are generally low-toxic chemicals under normal conditions of use. However, as a strong acid, it may cause irritation to the eyes, respiratory system and skin. Therefore, care should be taken to avoid contact with the Propionic acid-13C3 and to be equipped with necessary protective measures, such as gloves, glasses and protective clothing. In case of accidental contact, flush with water and seek medical help. During storage and handling, Propionic acid-13C3 should be stored in closed containers, away from fire and oxidizing agents. In any chemical operation, the user should operate according to the specific situation and relevant safety information, and follow the safety operation procedures.
