TRIMETHYL CITRATE Chemical Properties,Uses,Production
Chemical Properties
Colorless crystals. M.P. 79℃. B.P. 287℃. (decomposes). Slightly soluble in water, soluble in alcohol and oils.
Uses
Trimethyl Citrate is a reagent used in the preparation of citrate-ciprofloxacin conjugates which has antibacterial activity.
Preparation
Trimethyl citrate is produced by direct esterification of Citric acid with Methanol using the old-fashioned method with 3% sulfuric acid and reflux to complete the esterification.
General Description
Trimethyl citrate is one of the constituents of Dioscorea opposita. The IC50 value for monoamine oxidase-B of trimethyl citrate was studied.
