The structures of solid magnesium citrates have been characterized by X-ray crystallography.In the 1:1 salt, only one carboxylate of citrate is deprotonated. It has the formula Mg(H 2 C 6 H 5 O 7) 2 The other form of magnesium citrate has the formula Mg(HC 6 H 5 O 7)(H 2 O) 2, consisting of the citrate dianion (both carboxylic acids are deprotonated). [1]
Magnesium citrate (3:2) (3 magnesium atoms per 2 citrate molecules), also called trimagnesium dicitrate, trimagnesium citrate, or the ambiguous name magnesium citrate.The substance may come as anhydrous or hydrated salt with varying properties.
Magnesiohastingsite is a calcium-containing amphibole and a member of the hornblende group. [5] It is an inosilicate (chain silicate) with the formula NaCa 2 (Mg 4 Fe 3+)(Si 6 Al 2)O 22 (OH) 2 [1] and molar mass 864.69 g. [2]
Speciation diagram for a 10-millimolar solution of citric acid. The violet curve corresponds to the trisodium citrate. As a conjugate base of a weak acid, citrate can perform as a buffering agent or acidity regulator, resisting changes in pH.
Sodium citrate is used to prevent donated blood from clotting in storage, and can also be used as an additive for apheresis to prevent clots forming in the tubes of the machine.
Triethyl citrate is an ester of citric acid.It is a colorless, odorless liquid used as a food additive, emulsifier and solvent (E number E1505) [4] to stabilize foams, especially as whipping aid for egg white. [5]
Potassium citrate is rapidly absorbed when given by mouth, and is excreted in the urine. [4] Since it is an alkaline salt, it is effective in reducing the pain and frequency of urination when these are caused by highly acidic urine. [5]
Caffeine citrate, sold under the brand name Cafcit among others, is a medication used to treat a lack of breathing in premature babies. [5] Specifically it is given to babies who are born at less than 35 weeks or weigh less than 2 kilograms (4.4 lb) once other causes are ruled out. [6]
