Chinese name: D-tartaric acid

English name: D-Tartaric acid

CAS: 147-71-7

EINECS number: 205-695-6

Molecular formula: C4H6O6

MDL number: MFCD00004238

Molecular weight: 150.09

Appearance: There are three stereoisomers of tartaric acid: right-handed tartaric acid, left-handed tartaric acid and meso-racemic tartaric acid. A mixture of equal amounts of right-handed and left-handed groups whose optical activity cancels each other out is called racemic tartaric acid. Mesomers do not occur in nature and can be chemically synthesized. All tartaric acids are colorless crystals that dissolve easily in water. Melting point 166-170℃
