Overview
-
Zaragozic acid A is the major metabolite of a class of unusual bicyclic tricarboxylic acids, produced by a number of fungi in the genera Curvularia, Exserohilum, Setosphaeria and others, discovered at Merck and Glaxo in the early 1990s. Zaragozic acid A is presented as the free acid rather than the tri-sodium salt to avoid stability problems associated with hydrolysis of the salt.
Zaragozic acid A is soluble in ethanol, methanol, DMF and DMSO.Please contact us at for specific academic pricing.
