About Cis-Aconitic acid

Cis-Aconitic acid (CAS 585-84-2) is an impurity of Citric acid offered by Vaqora Chemicals. Its molecular formula is C6H6O6 and its molecular weight is 174.11 g/mol. The IUPAC name is (Z)-prop-1-ene-1,2,3-tricarboxylic acid. Common synonyms include cis-aconitate and (1Z)-prop-1-ene-1,2,3-tricarboxylic acid.

The product is provided as a solid. Keep the vial tightly closed, protected from light and humidity, at the temperature stated on the Certificate of Analysis. Under GHS it is labelled “Warning”, so handle it with suitable PPE and consult the SDS.

As a characterised impurity of Citric acid, it is used for analytical method development, method validation (AMV) and routine quality-control testing, and it supports ANDA and DMF regulatory filings. Buyers come mainly from pharmaceutical manufacturing and academic and industrial research.

We offer Cis-Aconitic acid in 10 mg, 25 mg, 50 mg and 100 mg packs with a batch-specific COA, and ship to customers worldwide.
