General description

Methyl 3-methoxypropionate is an ester.

Application

Methyl 3-methoxypropionate may be employed as acylation reagent for the lipase-catalyzed N-acylation of 1-phenylethanamine. It may be used in the synthesis of poly(2-hydroxylethyl 5-norbornene-2-carboxylate /t-butyl 5-norbornene-2-carboxylate /5-norbornene-2-carboxylic acid /maleic anhydride) resists. Lithographic performance of these resists was studied using ArF stepper.

One of the commercial methods for preparing enantiopure amines is lipase-catalyzed kinetic resolution, although lipases catalyze aminolysis with only low activity. Interestingly, in 1997 Balkenhohl et al. used ethyl methoxyacetate instead of ethyl butyrate as an acylation reagent for the
