Description

Ethyl-4-chloro-3-hydroxybutyrate (ECHB) is a chiral compound that is formed by the addition of hydrochloric acid to sorbose. It has been shown to inhibit the growth of bacteria through a reaction solution, which may be due to its ability to act as an inhibitor of enzyme catalysis. ECHB also has a high degree of chemical stability and can be used in analytical chemistry because it does not react with magnetic particles.
