Succinic-13C4 acid, also known as 1,4-butanedioic acid, is a stable isotopically labeled form of succinic acid, where the carbon atoms are enriched with the carbon-13 isotope. This compound retains the fundamental characteristics of succinic acid, which is a dicarboxylic acid with the molecular formula C4H6O4. It is a colorless, crystalline solid that is soluble in water and exhibits a slightly acidic nature due to the presence of two carboxyl functional groups. Succinic acid plays a significant role in various biochemical processes, including the citric acid cycle, and is used in the synthesis of polymers, food additives, and pharmaceuticals. The isotopic labeling with carbon-13 allows for its application in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and metabolic studies, providing insights into metabolic pathways and molecular interactions. The CAS number 201595-67-7 specifically identifies this isotopically labeled variant, distinguishing it from its non-labeled counterpart.
