Description

Citraconic acid belongs to the class of organic compounds known as methyl-branched fatty acids.


Solid


Citraconic acid is a dicarboxylic acid consisting of maleic acid having a methyl substituent at the 2-position. It has a role as a human metabolite. It is a dicarboxylic acid and a lipid. It derives from a maleic acid. It is a conjugate acid of a citraconate(2-).|Citraconic acid is one of the isomeric dicarboxylic acids produced by the distillation of citric acid, or as metabolites by microorganisms, cis-CH3-C(CO2H)=CHCO2H; the trans-isomer is mesaconic acid.
