Infobox references

Monosodium citrate, more correctly, sodium dihydrogen citrate (Latin: natrium citricum acidulatum), is an acid saltofcitric acid. Disodium citrate and trisodium citrate are also known. It can be prepared by partial neutralisation of citric acid[3] with an aqueous solution of sodium bicarbonateorcarbonate. It has a slightly acidic taste.[3]

NaHCO3 + C6H8O7 → NaC6H7O7 + CO2 + H2O
Na2CO3 + 2C6H8O7 → 2NaC6H7O7 + CO2 + H2O

It is highly soluble in water and practically insoluble in ethanol.[3] Monosodium citrate is used as an anticoagulantindonated blood.[4] It is used as an alkalinizing agent to prevent kidney stone disease.[5] The crystals form as nearly perfect cubes.[6]
