Application

(S)-(+)-2-(Methoxymethyl)pyrrolidine may be used to prepare planar chiral 2-phospha[3]ferrocenophanes. It may also be used as an organocatalyst in the cross-aldol reaction of dihydroxyacetone with p-nitrobenzaldehyde to form the corresponding polyol. SMP reacts with benzoylformic acid to form (S)-N-benzoylformyl-2-(methoxymethyl)-pyrrolidine.
Chiral auxiliary for asymmetric synthesis of propargyl alcohols and 4-nitrocyclohexanones, and for asymmetric Michael additions to enones.

Polycaprolactone (PCL) scaffolds have been widely investigated for tissue engineering applications, however, they exhibit poor cell adhesion and mechanical properties. Subsequently, PCL composites have been produced to improve the material properties. This study utilises a natural material, Bombyx mori silk

Engineering the interface between biomaterials and tissues is important to increase implant lifetime and avoid failures and revision surgeries. Permanent devices should enhance attachment and differentiation of stem cells, responsible for injured tissue repair, and simultaneously discourage bacterial colonization; this
