3-Bromopyruvate, also known as 3-bromo-2-oxopropanal, is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C3H3BrO2. It is a halogenated derivative of pyruvic acid, an important intermediate in various metabolic pathways. 3-Bromopyruvate is a colorless liquid with a pungent odor and is soluble in water, ethanol, and ether. It is primarily used as a reagent in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Due to its reactivity, 3-bromopyruvate can be used as a selective inhibitor of glycolytic enzymes, making it a valuable tool in studying metabolic processes and potential therapeutic applications. However, it is also considered a hazardous substance and requires proper handling and disposal to minimize environmental and health risks.
The CAS Registry Mumber 68-38-2 includes 5 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 2 digits, 6 and 8 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 3 and 8 respectively. Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 68-38: (4*6)+(3*8)+(2*3)+(1*8)=62 62 % 10 = 2 So 68-38-2 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
