TCI C0368 Trimethyl Citrate (CAS 1587-20-8) is the shortest-chain member of the citrate triester series and is typically handled as a solid at room temperature. It provides a protected tricarboxylic framework alongside a free tertiary hydroxyl group, enabling selective modification before the esters are unmasked. Chemists apply it as a symmetric three-armed core in branched and dendritic molecule synthesis, and as a substrate in transesterification studies. AMI Scientific offers this TCI building block in a 5 g pack sized for precise, small-scale research work.
