Descriptions:
pubchem: Peracetic acid is a peroxy acid that is acetic acid in which the OH group is substituted by a hydroperoxy group. It is a versatile oxidising agent that is used as a disinfectant. It has a role as a disinfectant and an oxidising agent. It is functionally related to an acetic acid.
chebi: A peroxy acid that is acetic acid in which the OH group is substituted by a hydroperoxy group. It is a versatile oxidising agent that is used as a disinfectant.
chembl: ETHANEPEROXOIC ACID is a small molecule listed in the ChEMBL database but has not progressed to an approved clinical phase.
wikipedia: Peracetic acid (also known as peroxyacetic acid, or Percidine) is an organic compound with the formula CH3CO3H. This peroxy acid is a colorless liquid with a characteristic acrid odor reminiscent of acetic acid. It can be highly corrosive.
Peracetic acid is a weaker acid than the parent acetic acid, with a pKa of 8.2.
