uses | 3-nitropropionic acid is a very useful organic chemical intermediate? It can be used to synthesize β-amino acids and can also be used to prepare aliskiren key intermediates. |
toxicity | 3-nitropropionic acid is a metabolite of a few strains of Aspergillus and Penicillium. The sugarcane Artemisia and Artemisia sugarcane isolated from metamorphic sugarcane in China can also produce 3-nitropropionic acid. 3-nitropropionic acid is a kind of neurotoxin. People are prone to poisoning by accidental eating, especially in children. The main manifestation of this poisoning is damage to the central nervous system. |
Biological activity | 3-Nitropropanoic acid (β-Nitropropionic acid) is an irreversible inhibitor of succinate dehydrogenase. 3-Nitropropanoic acid has strong anti-mycobacterial activity with a MIC value of 3.3 μM. |
