Molecular FormulaC8H14O2S2
Molecular Weight206.3
Melting Point60.5
Boiling Point162.5
LogP2.1
ApplicationsUses: Nutrition, biochemical research, Thioctic acid, dl-form, THERAPEUTIC CATEGORY: Treatment of liver disease, antidote to poisonous mushrooms (Amanita species)., Use (kg, approx.) in Germany (2009): >7500, Consumption (g per capita, approx.) in Germany (2009): 0.0916, Calculated removal (%): 96.4, For nutritional supplementation, also for treating dietary shortage or imbalance., Household Products: Information on 1 consumer products that contain Thioctic Acid in the following categories is provided:, • Personal Care, Methods of Manufacturing: Industrial synthesis of thioctic acid is performed in three stages. Monomethyl or monoethyl adipate is converted into the corresponding acid chloride by reaction with thionyl chloride. Treatment with ethylene in the presence of anhydrous aluminum chloride yields 8-chloro-6-ketooctanoate. In the second stage, this ester is reduced to 8-chloro-6-hydroxyoctanoate by using thionyl chloride in pyridine. In the third stage, the chlorine atoms are replaced by sulfur atoms by treatment with sodium disulfide. Hydrolysis of the resulting dithionooctyl ester formed with alcoholic potassium hydroxide gives thioctic acid., Formulations, Preparations: Oral: Capsules 30 mg Coenzyme Q10, 12-5 mg alpha-Lipoic Acid, Coquinone 30 (USANA Health Sciences Inc)., Coquinone 30, Juvenon: acetyl-L-carnitine and alpha lipoic acid, General Manufacturing Information: Helps the body maintain healthy skeletal and cardiac muscle
