Carnitines are organic compounds containing the quaternary ammonium compound carnitine. Malonyl-carnitin is slightly soluble (in water) and a weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Malonyl-carnitin can be synthesized from butyrate. Malonyl-carnitin is also a parent compound for other transformation products, including but not limited to, O-sebacoylcarnitine, O-(4,8-dimethylnonanoyl)carnitine, and O-(11-carboxyundecanoyl)carnitine. Malonyl-carnitin can be found in avocado, which makes malonyl-carnitin a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product. Malonyl-carnitin can be found primarily in blood. 3-Carboxy-2-hydroxy-N,N,N-trimethyl-1-propanaminium hydroxide inner salt, 9CI 4-Amino-3-hydroxybutanoic acid trimethylbetaine b-Hydroxy-g-butyrotrimethylbetaine Novain Vitamin BT C7H15NO3 161.1989 161.105193351 3-hydroxy-4-(trimethylazaniumyl)butanoate carnitine 461-06-3 C[N+](C)(C)CC(O)CC([O-])=O InChI=1S/C7H15NO3/c1-8(2,3)5-6(9)4-7(10)11/h6,9H,4-5H2,1-3H3 PHIQHXFUZVPYII-UHFFFAOYSA-N belongs to the class of organic compounds known as carnitines.
