Applications & Uses
Description
It is an important intermediate involved in the synthesis of chemical and pharmaceutical products such as vitamin B, 3,4-substituted pyridine, 5-(2-Hydroxyethyl)-4-methylthiazole. In presence of 2-acetylbutyrolactone, reaction of tert-butyl isocyanide with dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylates leads to the formation of dialkyl (E)-2-{(tert-butylamino)[2-oxo-4,5-dihydro-3(2H)-furanylidene]methyl}-2-butenedioates.1 Moreover, reaction of 2-acetylbutyrolactone with thiosemicarbazide and 3-(2-bromo-acetyl)-chromen-2-one in anhydrous ethanol produced 3-{2-[5-hydroxyl-4-(2-hydroxyl-ethyl)-3-methyl-pyrazol-1-yl]-thiazol-4-yl}-chromen-2-one in good yields.2 In addition, 2-acetylbutyrolactone can also function as the raw material for synthesizing pilocarpine that is a leading therapeutic agent for the treatment of narrow and wide angle glaucoma.3 Besides, this chemical can also act as a fluorogenic reagent in the quantitative spectrofluorometric determination of primary amines, which has been demonstrated to be equally accurate and precise as the officially or other reported methods.4
Uses
An intermediate in the synthesis of 2,4-disubstituted pyridines. A fluorogenic reagent for the spectrofluorimetric determination of primary amines.
Uses
In synthesis of 3,4-disubstituted pyridines; of 5-(b-hydroxethyl)-4-methylthiazole.
