Methyl 2-formyl-3-oxo-propionate
CAS:<p>Methyl 2-formyl-3-oxo-propionate is a reactive chemical that is used to prepare quinolizidines, which are biologically active compounds. It is synthesized from 3-acetylpyridine and formaldehyde in the presence of diborane. The reaction with trifluoroacetic acid leads to the formation of an acid chloride, which can be further reacted with amines to give quinolizidines. This compound has been shown to inhibit adenosine receptor a2a, which may lead to increased blood flow and improved cardiac function.</p>Formula:C5H6O4Purity:Min. 95%Molecular weight:130.1 g/mol
