Description and Uses
Methyl-4-oxobutyrate is a kind of oxobutyrate derivative. It is an important industrial intermediate. It, together with its methanol addition products such as methyl 4,4-dimethoxybutyrate and gamma- methoxy-gamma-butyrolactone are useful intermediates during the preparation of some important industrial compounds such as gamma- butyrolactone, 1,4-butanediol and glutamate. It is also useful as a model substrate during exploring the asymmetric henry reaction since it can assemble a stereodefined lactam with high efficiency and enantiomeric purity.
Methyl 4-oxobutanoate may be used as a starting material to synthesize (-)-deoxoprosophylline, a piperidine alkaloid with therapeutic potential.
