3-Phenylbut-2-enoic acid is a prochiral, carbonyl compound that can be used in the synthesis of chiral pharmaceuticals. Mechanistic studies have shown that 3-phenylbut-2-enoic acid is a catalytic hydrogenation reagent that converts prochiral substrates to their corresponding chiral products. When combined with binap and butenoic acid, 3-phenylbut-2-enoic acid can catalyze the asymmetric synthesis of butenoate. The reaction yields high enantiomeric excesses and good yields.
