1. oxaloacetic acid

   Oxaloacetic acid is a four-carbon molecule often abbreviated as OAA. It is a metabolic intermediate involved in many biochemical processes, including the citric acid cycle, gluconeogenesis, and the malate-aspartate shuttle. It reacts with Acetyl-CoA to form citrate in the first step of the citric acid cycle. It is also a key component in the synthesis of amino acids and other biochemicals. Despite having the word "acid" in its name, it exists in cells primarily as its conjugate base, oxaloacetate.

1. Oxaloacetic acid

   Oxaloacetic acid is an organic compound with the chemical formula C4H4O5 or HOOC---COOH. It also has other names. Its fully deprotonated derivative is the oxaloacetate anion, C4H2O52− or [C=O]2−; this name is also used for esters that contain the divalent [-O(C=O)2O-] moiety. Loss of a single proton gives the acid's conjugate base, the anion hydrogenoxaloacetate anion H(C=O)2−.
