| Methacetin Usage And Synthesis |
Chemical Properties | LIGHT BEIGE CRYSTALLINE POWDER | Uses | Methacetin is evaluated in a breath test to predict early liver disfunction due to valproic acid and other cause. Methacetin breath test (MBT) is a rapid, non-invasive assessment of liver function in acute severe liver disease and a potential key tool in future dignosis. | Definition | ChEBI: Methacetin is a member of the class of acetamides that is paracetamol in which the hydrogen of phenolic hydroxy group has been replaced by a methyl group. It is a member of acetamides and an aromatic ether. It is functionally related to a p-anisidine and a paracetamol. | Synthesis Reference(s) | Journal of the American Chemical Society, 89, p. 7131, 1967 DOI: 10.1021/ja01002a061 The Journal of Organic Chemistry, 42, p. 3755, 1977 Organic Syntheses, Coll. Vol. 3, p. 661, 1955 | Safety Profile | Moderately toxic by ingestion andother unspecified routes. When heated to decomposition itemits toxic fumes of NOx. |
