Properties of (R)-(+)-1,2-Dithiolane-3-pentanoic acid CAS 1200-22-2

R-(+)-Lipoic acid is a yellow crystalline substance. Lipoic acid is a natural product with biological activity. In 1951, Raed et al. reported that a crystalline cofactor of growth-promoting enzyme was isolated from treated insoluble liver tissue residue. Because of its high fat-soluble and acidic properties (pka = 4.7), this compound was named sulfur bitter.

Lipoic acid is an endogenous antioxidant that can remove free radicals from the body, promote the body's use of glucose to synthesize vitamin C, and promote the synthesis of glutathione, which can effectively remove melanin, and can also assist in coenzymes that are beneficial to the body’s immunity. Physiological metabolism.

Lipoic acid also has anti-inflammatory effects, can inhibit the activities of kinases, transforming factors, tumor necrosis factor and collagenase, and has anti-aging effects.

Lipoic acid can preserve and regenerate other antioxidants, and has a good health effect on the human body. It is currently widely used in the prevention and treatment of heart disease, diabetes, liver disease and Alzheimer's disease.

Application of (R)-(+)-1,2-Dithiolane-3-pentanoic acid CAS 1200-22-2

(R)-(+)-1,2-Dithiolane-3-pentanoic acid CAS 1200-22-2 is the naturally occurring form of lipoic acid, a nutrient present in every cell of the body, essential to chemical reactions that allow the body to produce energy. The body produces very little alpha lipoic acid and it is difficult to obtain sufficient quantities through diet alone.

(R)-(+)-1,2-Dithiolane-3-pentanoic acid CAS 1200-22-2 has been called “a universal antioxidant” because it’s effective as an antioxidant in water-based environments, such as blood, yet its reduced metabolite, dihydrolipoic acid (DHLA), is also effective in protecting fatty tissues and membranes.

(R)-(+)-1,2-Dithiolane-3-pentanoic acid CAS 1200-22-2 form is considered the biologically active form, identical to that produced by the body. Unlike other forms of lipoic acid, RALA is bioavailable and more stable in the body.
