• Beschreibung: (R)-2-Methylbutyric acid is a synthetic compound that has the same stereoisomeric configuration as 2-methylbutyric acid. The difference in the two molecules is that the (R) form has a hydroxyl group on the alpha carbon, while 2-methylbutyric acid does not. This compound is stable under acidic conditions, but hydrolyzes to form butyric acid when exposed to basic conditions. It is used in industrial applications such as food production and as an intermediate in synthesizing other compounds such as tiglic acid or amido groups.
