Derivative Type: DL-Form calcium salt dihydrate
Molecular Formula: C3H5CaO6P.2H2O
Molecular Weight: 244.15
Percent Composition: C 14.76%, H 3.72%, Ca 16.42%, O 52.42%, P 12.69%
Properties: Crystals, sol in water. Aq solns are not stable, particularly when alkaline. The dioxane addition compd of DL-glyceraldehyde 1-bromide 3-phosphoric acid described by Baer is relatively stable and may be stored in the refrigerator. An aq soln of the Na or K salt of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphoric acid (contg dioxane and bromide ion) is readily obtained by dissolving the dioxane compd in cold water and carefully neutralizing to pH 7.
 
Derivative Type: D-Form calcium salt dihydrate
