Molecular Weight: 476.53
IUPAC Name: calcium bis[(2R)-2,4-dihydroxy-3,3-dimethylbutanamido]acetate
Structural Information
- Structure Type: Water-soluble B vitamin calcium salt
- Structural Features: Two D-pantothenic acid anions chelate with one calcium ion; contains pantolactone and β-alanine structural fragments, core component of coenzyme A in human metabolism
Physical & Chemical Properties
- Appearance: White crystalline powder
- Odor: Slight characteristic odor, bitter sweet taste
- Melting Point: 195–196 °C (decomposition)
- Specific Rotation: [α]D2? +24° ~ +28° (aqueous solution)
- Solubility: Freely soluble in water; slightly soluble in methanol; insoluble in ethanol, acetone, ether
- Stability: Hygroscopic; stable under weak acid and neutral conditions; decomposes under strong acid, strong alkali and high temperature to lose activity; sensitive to long-term strong light
Synthesis & Applications
