| 2-Methylheptanoic acid Usage And Synthesis |
| Uses | 2-Methylheptanoic Acid is used as a reagent in the synthesis of novel isoniazid derivatives with potent antitubercular activity. | | Description | 2-Methylheptanoic acid has a fatty, sour odor (rancid-like) with a
sour, fruity, and nut-like flavor. May be synthesized by decarboxylation of methylamyl malonic acid; two optically active isomers
and an optically inactive form can be prepared. | | Chemical Properties | 2-Methylheptanoic acid has a fatty, sour odor (rancid-like); sour, fruity and nut-like flavor. | | Chemical Properties | clear slightly yellow liquid | | Occurrence | Reported found in lamb, mutton and tea | | Uses | 2-Methylheptanoic Acid is used as a reagent in the synthesis of novel isoniazid derivatives with potent antitubercular activity. | | Preparation | By decarboxylation of methylamyl malonic acid; two optically active isomers and an optically inactive form can be
