The Uses of 1,1-Cyclopropanedicarboxylic acid

1,1-Cyclopropanedicarboxylic acid, is used as an inhibitor of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid oxidase, was quantitated in Lycopersicum esculentum by HPLC-electrospray tandem mass spectrometry. Crystal and molecular structure of cyclopropane-1,1-dicarboxylic acid has been reported. Cyclopropane-1,1-dicarboxylic acid was used in the preparation of new heterocyclic derivatives of cyclopropane dicarboxylic acid containing thiadiazole and 1,2,4-triazole moieties. It was also used to prepare spiro-cyclopropyl metallocycles. It can also be used as a building block for the synthesis of a series of cyclopropanecarboxamides, having antifungal activity.

General Description

Cyclopropane-1,1-dicarboxylic acid is a dicarboxylic acid. Cyclopropane-1,1-dicarboxylic acid, an inhibitor of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid oxidase, was quantitated in Lycopersicum esculentum by HPLC-electrospray tandem mass spectrometry. Crystal and molecular structure of cyclopropane-1,1-dicarboxylic acid has been reported.

Purification Methods

Recrystallise the di-acid from CHCl3, EtOAc or *C6H6/Et2O/pet ether. It forms a monohydrate. [Nicolet & Satler J Am Chem Soc 49 2070 1927, Beilstein 9 II 512, 9 III 3795.]
