Calcium 2-hydroxypropanoate pentahydrate (cas: 5743-47-5) belongs to alcohols. The oxygen atom of the strongly polarized O―H bond of an alcohol pulls electron density away from the hydrogen atom. This polarized hydrogen, which bears a partial positive charge, can form a hydrogen bond with a pair of nonbonding electrons on another oxygen atom. The most common reactions of alcohols can be classified as oxidation, dehydration, substitution, esterification, and reactions of alkoxides.COA of Formula: C6H20CaO11

Optimization of the procedure for the synthesis of calcium lactate pentahydrate in laboratory and semi-industrial conditions was written by Uscumlic, Gordana S.;Trisovic, Nemanja P.;Dordevic, Irena N.;Valentic, Natasa V.;Petrovic, Slobodan D.. And the article was included in Hemijska Industrija in 2009.COA of Formula: C6H20CaO11 This article mentions the following:

This paper is concerned on the development of the optimal laboratory procedure for the synthesis of calcium lactate pentahydrate and the application of obtained results in a project for a semi-industrial installation for its production Calcium lactate is used as an additive in numerous food and pharmaceutical products. Basically, it has to satisfy quality requirements. That was the reason why the procedure for its synthesis had to be optimized in aspects of selection of reactants, their molar ratio, necessary laboratory equipment, reactant addition order, working temperature, isolation of final product from the reaction mixture, yield and product quality. A semi-industrial installation for the production of calcium lactate pentahydrate is projected on the basis of the results of this investigtion. The imprtance of this investigation arises from the fact that this salt is not produced in Serbia and the complete quantity (about 20 t per yr) is imported. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, Calcium 2-hydroxypropanoate pentahydrate (cas: 5743-47-5COA of Formula: C6H20CaO11).
