Beschreibung

O-Methyl-L-lactic acid ethyl ester is a structural analog of the naturally occurring lactic acid. The compound has been shown to inhibit bacterial growth and is used as a preservative in food. It has also been used in the synthesis of other biologically active compounds, such as antibiotics, beta blockers, and antipsychotics. O-Methyl-L-lactic acid ethyl ester is synthesized by the reaction of an aryl halide with methyl vinyl ketone followed by hydrolysis. This method yields a mixture of substituents at the 3-, 4-, or 5-positions of the carbonyl group that can be determined based on their steric effects and electron density. Carbonyl groups are also found in carboxylic acids, which have one hydrogen atom replaced by a carbon atom.
