Application

(1S,2R,5S)-(+)-Menthyl (R)-p-toluenesulfinate can be used:
  • As a chiral electrophile in the synthesis of fluorescent triazolopyridine ligands.
  • To prepare various sulfinimines, which are further used in the synthesis of α-aminophosphonic acids by reacting with borane complexes.
  • In one of the key synthetic steps for the synthesis of (S)-(+)-ethyl β-amino-3-pyridinepropanoate, a component of an antiplatelet agent.
