Aceto acetic acid

Acetyl aceto-acetic ester is prepared by the action of acetyl chloride upon the compound CH3.CO.CH Na.COOC2H5, and on hydrolysis gives acetic and aceto-acetic acids ...

This dipeptide bears to amino acetic acid a relationship similar to that which aceto acetic acid bears to acetic acid. This is indicated by the name amino aceto amino acetic acid. Another method of preparing the polypeptides is by the action of the acid chloride of the amino acid on the amino acid itself. 

Acesulfame is an artificial sweetener derived from aceto-acetic acid. It is used in a wide range of non-medicinal products (1). 

Many investigators have attempted to isolate mercury derivatives from aceto-acetie ester, but the results have been so varied that no reliance can be placed on any of the early work on this compound. Kharasch and Staveley, however, have obtained definite results by heating mercury salts of substituted acetic acids in vacuo, e.g, di-method and diethyl aceto-acetic acids when dried and heated in vacuo at 90 C. evolve carbon dioxide, and the mercury becomes bound to the carbon atoms which were formerly attached to the carboxyl groups —... 

Reaction with active-H compounds. The reagent is hydrolyzed by water to aceto-acetic acid and it reacts with alcohols to form the corresponding esters, as illustrated by a procedure for the preparation of t-butyl acetoacetate. The analogous reaction... 

The enzyme hydrolyzing fumarylacetoacetic acid to fumaric and aceto-acetic acids has as yet been little studied. It may be the same as acylpyru-vase (592) or the triacetic acid hydrolyzing enzyme (154). 

In the reaction of y -keto esters with a-halo ketones, the possible competition between C-alkylation (followed by reaction of the Paal-Knorr type) and aldol addition (followed by reaction of the Feist-Benary type) can result in mixtures of isomeric fiirans. Regioselectivity can, however, sometimes be controlled by the reaction conditions, as for instance in the interaction of chloroacetone with an aceto-acetic acid ester, leading to the furan-3-carboxylates 18/19 ... 

The liver is exceptionally well equipped to oxidize fatty acids. The ketone bodies (acetone, hydroxybutyrate, and aceto acetic acid) are among the products of fatty acid oxidation. 

Advances in the knowledge of the metabolic reactions of acetoacetate and the further studies of Coon on leucine metabolism solved the remaining uncertainties in the interpretation of the previous experimental data. This author demonstrated that the 3 carbons of the isopropyl group of leucine are incorporated as a unit into the 2-, 3-, and 4-positions of aceto-acetic acid. The carboxyl carbon probably arises by a CO2 fixation reaction, which had not been recognized previously. According to this scheme the complete breakdown of a mole of leucine by liver leads to the formation of approximately 1.5 moles of ketone bodies.
