Produktinformation

• Name: (1S,2S)-(+)-2-Methylcyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid
• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: (1S,2S)-(+)-2-Methylcyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid is a flavoring agent that is used as a substitute for menthol. It can be synthesized enzymatically by using microbial cells, such as Rhodococcus erythropolis. This compound can also be synthesized by modifying an amide with the optically active reagent (+)-alpha-(trifluoromethyl)benzylidene tartrate and catalyzed with enzyme amides. The taste of this molecule has been shown to be modified by the presence of an enzymatic matrix. The enantioselective synthesis of (1S,2S)-(+)-2-methylcyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid is achieved from racemic 2-methylcyclopropanol.
