Metabolite Identification
Common NamePivaloylcarnitine
DescriptionPivaloylcarnitine belongs to the class of organic compounds known as acyl carnitines. These are organic compounds containing a fatty acid with the carboxylic acid attached to carnitine through an ester bond. Thus, pivaloylcarnitine is considered to be a fatty ester lipid molecule. Pivaloylcarnitine is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral.
