Butyric acid (/ ˈ b j uː t ɪ r ɪ k /; from Ancient Greek: βούτῡρον, meaning "butter"), also known under the systematic name butanoic acid, is a straight-chain alkyl carboxylic acid with the chemical formula CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 COOH. It is an oily, colorless liquid with an unpleasant odor.
Chemical formula Name CAS number N 2 H 4: hydrazine: 302-01-2 HNO 3: nitric acid: 7697-37-2 H 2 O 2: hydrogen peroxide: 7722-84-1 HF: hydrofluoric acid: 7664-39-3 H 2 SO 4: sulfuric acid: 7664-93-9 HCl: hydrochloric acid: 7647-01-0
The molecular formula C 12 H 13 NO 2 (molar mass: 203.24 g/mol, exact mass: 203.0946 u) may refer to: Indole-3-butyric acid (IBA)
n-Butyl lactate reacts with strong acids, strong bases, and oxidizers.It is also flammable. Exposure to dangerous amounts can occur through inhalation, ingestion, skin contact, or eye contact and causes irritation of the affected area, drowsiness, headache, central nervous system depression, nausea, and vomiting.

Butyryl chloride is an organic compound with the chemical formula CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 C(O)Cl. It is a colorless liquid with a unpleasant odor. Butyryl chloride is soluble in organic solvents, but it reacts readily with water and alcohols. It is usually produced by chlorination of butyric acid. [1]
Sodium butyrate is a compound with formula Na(C 3 H 7 COO). It is the sodium salt of butyric acid. It has various effects on cultured mammalian cells including inhibition of proliferation, induction of differentiation and induction or repression of gene expression. [1] As such, it can be used in lab to bring about any of these effects.
β-Hydroxybutyryl-CoA (or 3-hydroxybutyryl-coenzyme A) is an intermediate in the fermentation of butyric acid, and in the metabolism of lysine and tryptophan. [1] [2] The L-3-hydroxybutyl-CoA (or (S)-3-hydroxybutanoyl-CoA) enantiomer is also the second to last intermediate in beta oxidation of even-numbered, straight chain, and saturated fatty acids.
Butyryl-CoA (or butyryl-coenzyme A, butanoyl-CoA) is an organic coenzyme A-containing derivative of butyric acid. [1] It is a natural product found in many biological pathways, such as fatty acid metabolism (degradation and elongation), fermentation, and 4-aminobutanoate (GABA) degradation.
