Formic anhydride can be isolated by low-temperature, low-pressure distillation, but decomposes on heating above room temperature. It decomposes into formic acid and carbon monoxide. The decomposition of formic anhydride may be catalyzed by formic acid. Formic anhydride can be detected in the gas-phase reaction of ozone with ethylene. The molecule is planar in the gas phase. Formic anhydride Formic anhydride, also called methanoic anhydride, is an organic compound with the chemical formula and a structural formula of (H(C=O)−)O. It can be viewed as the anhydride of formic acid (HCOOH). Formic anhydride can be obtained by reaction of formyl fluoride with sodium formate
Alpha-Ketoglutaric acid the setting of the amino acid deprivation that can be seen in the tumor microenvironment.<ref name="DOI:10.1126/scisignal.aab2610"></ref> α-Ketoglutarate can be produced by: Alpha-ketoglutarate can be used to produce: Alpha-Ketoglutaric acid α-Ketoglutaric acid (2-oxoglutaric acid) is one of two ketone derivatives of glutaric acid. (The term "ketoglutaric acid," when not further qualified, almost always refers to the alpha variant. β-Ketoglutaric acid varies only by the position of the ketone functional group, and is much less common. Its anion, α-ketoglutarate (α-KG, also called 2-oxoglutarate, or 2OG) is an important biological compound. It is the keto acid produced by deamination of glutamate, and is
