Application

(-)-Dibenzyl D-tartrate can be employed as a reactant to synthesize:
  • 2,3-bis(8-Methoxyoctanoyl) dibenzyl tartrate (DBT) by reacting with 8-methoxyoctanoic acid in the presence of 1-ethyl-3-(3-(dimethylamino)propyl)carbodiimide (EDCI) as a coupling reagent.
  • (-)-Chicoric acid (2,3-bis{[3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-1-oxoprop-2-enyl]oxy}butanedioic acid), as a potent inhibitor.
  • Diesters of aziridine-2,3-dicarboxylic acid derivatives.
