Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C)

Ascorbic acid is a naturally occurring organic compound with antioxidant properties. It is a white solid, but impure samples can appear yellowish. It dissolves well in water to give mildly acidic solutions. Ascorbic acid is one form ("vitamer") of vitamin C. It was originally called L-hexuronic acid, Because it is derived from glucose, many animals are able to produce it, but humans require it as part of their nutrition. There exists a D-ascorbic acid, which does not occur in nature. It may be synthesized artificially.
