CAS 32366-70-4: 1,2,3-Propanetricarboxylicacid, 2-fluoro-2-hydroxy-, barium salt (9CI)

Barium Fluorocitrate is a metabolic intermediate of citric acid, which is synthesized from malonic acid and erythropoietin. It is a molecule that transports carbon dioxide to the mitochondria and is used in the synthesis of glucose. Barium Fluorocitrate can be found in dry weight, glutamate, and metabolic intermediates. This compound has been shown to inhibit glutamate reuptake by neurons and decrease metabolism in patients with epilepsy.
