Most of the compounds have physiologically active properties, and their biological properties are often attributed to the heteroatoms contained in their molecules, and most of these heteroatoms also appear in cyclic structures. A Journal, European Journal of Organic Chemistry called Inversion of configuration of (S)-β-hydroxy-γ-butyrolactone with total retention of the enantiomeric purity, Author is De Angelis, Francesco; De Fusco, Enrico; Desiderio, Paola; Giannessi, Fabio; Piccirilli, Fabrizio; Tinti, Maria Ornella, which mentions a compound: 58081-05-3, SMILESS is O=C1OC[C@H](O)C1, Molecular C4H6O3, Product Details of 58081-05-3.
The inversion of configuration of (S)-β-hydroxy-γ-butyrolactone to its (R) enantiomer is reported with total retention of the enantiomeric purity by a 4-step procedure. The (R) enantiomer was thus synthesized with an overall chem. yield of 47% and >97% ee. This transformation opens an economic route to the production of (R)-GABOB and (R)-carnitine, among other biol. active compounds, from a D-hexose source, or, alternatively, from the industrial waste compound (S)-carnitine. During the reaction sequence, the intermediate (R)-β-(hydroxymethyl)-β-propiolactone is also prepared, which is now under investigation as a chiral synthon for new synthetic applications.
There is still a lot of research devoted to this compound(SMILES：O=C1OC[C@H](O)C1)Product Details of 58081-05-3, and with the development of science, more effects of this compound(58081-05-3) can be discovered.
