Description

Application

(-)-Dimethyl 2,3-O-isopropylidene-L-tartrate may be used as a starting material in the total synthesis of (+)-migrastatin and also in the synthesis of a structural analog of S-ribosylhomocysteinase (LuxS), which acts as a potent competitive inhibitor against LuxS.

Valuable building block for TADDOL chiral auxiliaries, dipyridine ligands, and threitols.
