Beschreibung

tert-Butyl 2-methyl-3-oxobutanoate is a metabolite of tert-butyl acetate, which is an organic compound that has been used for the production of synthetic rubber and other chemicals. The biosynthesis of tert-butyl 2-methyl-3-oxobutanoate is dependent on the availability of a ketoaldehyde precursor. When tert-butyl acetate is incubated with aspergillus niger, the desired product can be obtained in high yield. Tertiary butyl 2 methyl 3 oxobutanoate can also be synthesized by deuteration of tertiary butyl alcohol with deuterium gas. The product can then be purified using gas chromatography/mass spectroscopy (GC/MS) and identified using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis.
