Chemical Properties
Light yellow powder
Uses
Chelidamic acid hydrate has been used in eluent solution as a complexing additive in high-performance chelation ion chromatography (HPCIC) for speciation of iron. It has also been used as an organic ligand for the polyoxometalate (POM)-based lanthanoid hybrid compounds.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Among the most potent of the tested "conformationally restricted glutamate analogs" as an inhibitor of glutamate decarboxylase.
Advantages
Chelidamic acid (1,4-dihydro-4-oxopyridine-2,6- dicarboxylic acid, CDA) is an organic material with great potential for accepting alkaline ions. It could be used as the anode material in LIBs. The new materials offer high capacity, superior cycle retention, favourable rate capability, and interesting electrochemical behaviours[1].
