Application
(S)-(−)-1,2-Epoxybutane can be used:
- As a starting material to prepare (+)- and (−)-homononactic acids, which are used as intermediates in the total synthesis of a cyclic antibiotic tetranactin.
- To prepare a chiral phosphorus synthon, which is applicable in the synthesis of phytoprostane B1 type I.
- To prepare Eu3+-based precatalysts applicable in the Mukaiyama Aldol reaction in water.
