| Description | 2,2,4-Trihydroxybutanoic acid, also known as 2,2,4-trihydroxybutyrate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as short-chain hydroxy acids and derivatives. These are hydroxy acids with an alkyl chain the contains less than 6 carbon atoms. 2,2,4-Trihydroxybutanoic acid is a secondary metabolite. Secondary metabolites are metabolically or physiologically non-essential metabolites that may serve a role as defense or signalling molecules. In some cases they are simply molecules that arise from the incomplete metabolism of other secondary metabolites. Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on 2,2,4-Trihydroxybutanoic acid. |
