Metabolite Identification
Common NameMono-methyl-adipate
DescriptionMono-methyl-adipate, also known as methyl adipic acid, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as medium-chain fatty acids. These are fatty acids with an aliphatic tail that contains between 4 and 12 carbon atoms. Mono-methyl-adipate is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa).
