Product Information
(R)-5-phenyloxazolidin-2-one is a cyclic compound and an active metabolite of the glucosinolate glucobarbarin. It is produced by the hydrolysis of glucobarbarin, which is found in the leaves of plants in the genus Lepidoptera. The hydrolysis products are glucosinolates and (R)-5-phenyloxazolidin-2-one. The generalist insect herbivores that feed on plants containing this compound have been shown to have high concentrations in their bodies, suggesting that they are able to recover from damage caused by feeding on these plants. This suggests that (R)-5-phenyloxazolidin-2-one may be a valuable candidate for pest control in crops such as brassicaceae, which includes cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, kale, Brussels sprouts, turnips, and rapeseed.
