General description

Tricarballylic acid also known as 1,2,3-Propanetricarboxylic acid is a small biomimetic ligand that is often used as building blocks in the synthesis of metal-organic frameworks. Additionally, it is used to produce high-value plasticizers.

Application


  • Effect of organic acids on the solid-state polymorphic phase transformation of piracetam.: Examines the impact of tricarballylic acid and other organic acids on the polymorphic phase transformation of the drug piracetam, relevant for pharmaceutical formulations and drug stability studies (Fan F et al., 2023).

  • Nanotubule inclusion in the channels formed by a six-fold interpenetrated, triperiodic framework.: Describes the synthesis of novel materials incorporating tricarballylic acid, which could have implications for polymer production and advanced material applications (Kusumoto S et al., 2023).
