L-carnitine Chemical Properties,Uses,Production

Chemical Properties

White or almost white, crystalline powder or colourless crystals, hygroscopic.

Occurrence

Synthetic. It is found in its natural state in food

Uses

L-Carnitine is a natural, vitamin-like nutrient wich plays an important role inhuman metabolism. It is essential in the utilization of fatty acids and in transporting metabolic energy

Definition

ChEBI: The (R)-enantiomer of carnitine.

General Description

Pharmaceutical secondary standards for application in quality control provide pharma laboratories and manufacturers with a convenient and cost-effective alternative to the preparation of in-house working standards.
Levocarnitine is a naturally available compound that plays a significant role in fatty acid oxidation and energy production in the human body. It is majorly found in skeletal and cardiac muscles of mammals and facilitates the transport of long chain fatty acids into mitochondria.

Purification Methods

The S(L) isomer is levocarnitine, Vitamin B7. The R or S isomers crystallise from EtOH/Me2CO (hygroscopic). The R or S hydrochlorides crystallise from hot EtOH or EtOH/Et2O and have m 142o(dec). The RS-isomer crystallises from hot EtOH (hygroscopic). The RS hydrochloride crystallises in needles from hot EtOH and has m 196o(dec).
