Description

Ethyl (S)-(+)-2-pyrrolidinone-5-carboxylate is a potent inhibitor of plasma glucose levels. It inhibits chemical reactions by acting as a nucleophile, attacking the carbonyl group at the anomeric carbon. This reaction causes the ring to open and form an amide. Ethyl (S)-(+)-2-pyrrolidinone-5-carboxylate has been shown to have stereoselective effects in vitro, inhibiting 3-o-caffeoylquinic acid production in human erythrocytes. It also inhibits amide bond formation and fatty esters synthesis in vitro, leading to decreased lipid level. Ethyl (S)-(+)-2-pyrrolidinone-5-carboxylate also has anti-inflammatory properties that may be due to its ability to inhibit prostaglandin synthesis.
