Levomefolic acid, also known as 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF), is a naturally occurring and biologically active form of folate. With the CAS number 31690-09-2, it has the chemical formula C20H25N7O6 and a molecular weight of 459.46 g/mol. Levomefolic acid exists as a solid and is primarily used in pharmaceutical preparations due to its essential role in folate metabolism. It can be converted directly into the active form of folate used by the body, bypassing metabolic steps that may be impaired in certain individuals. This makes levomefolic acid particularly beneficial for those with mutations in the MTHFR gene, which affects folate metabolism.
