L-(-)-Malic Acid(Cas 97-67-6) Usage

Preparation

L-Malic acid can be prepared by hydration of maleic acid; by fermentation from sugar.

Biochem/physiol Actions

L-Malic acid is a part of cellular metabolism. Its application is recognized in pharmaceutics. It is useful in the treatment of hepatic malfunctioning, effective against hyper-ammonemia. It is used as a part of amino acid infusion. L-Malic acid also serves as a nanomedicine in the treatment of brain neurological disorders. A TCA (Krebs cycle) intermediate and partner in the malic acid aspartate shuttle.

Purification Methods

Crystallise S-malic acid (charcoal) from ethyl acetate/pet ether (b 55-56o), keeping the temperature below 65o. Or dissolve it by refluxing in fifteen parts of anhydrous diethyl ether, decant, concentrate to one-third volume and crystallise it at 0o, repeatedly to constant melting point. [Beilstein 3 IV 1123.]

Definition

ChEBI: An optically active form of malic acid having (S)-configuration.

General Description

L-Malic acid?is an organic acid that is commonly found in wine. It plays an important role in wine microbiological stability.
