Description and Uses
Succinic acid is a dicarboxylic acid with a pair of carboxylic acid functional groups. The terminal carboxylic acid groups can react with primary amine groups in the presence of activators (e.g. EDC, or HATU) to form a stable amide bond.
Succinic Acid was identified in essential oil from Saxifraga stolonifera and has antibacterial activity.
