ACETOACETIC acid is an important and widespread intermediary metabolite, being formed in the oxida-tive degradation of fatty acids and of certain amino-acids. For comparison with acetoacetic
acid, we have prepared1 the compound ethyl ω-fluoroacetoacetate, FCH2COCH2COOC2H5. From a consideration of its structural similarity to 4-fluorobutyric acid2 and of its probable
interference with the mechanism of fatty acid metabolism, we predicted that it would produce toxic symptoms.
