MedKoo Cat#: 330191 | Name: (R)-Dihydrolipoic acid

Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

(R)-Dihydrolipoic acid is a R-isomer of Dihydrolipoic acid. Dihydrolipoic acid, also know as DHLA, is an organic compound that is the reduced form of lipoic acid. This carboxylic acid features a pair of thiol groups, and therefore is a dithiol. It is optically active, but only the R-enantiomer is biochemically significant. The lipoic acid/dihydrolipoic acid pair participate in a variety of biochemical transformations.
