(R)-(-)-alpha-Methoxyphenylacetic acid is a synthetic compound that is used in the industrial process of making medicines. The synthesis of (R)-(-)-alpha-Methoxyphenylacetic acid is done by reacting an aldehyde with a chiral secondary amine. The product is then crystallized and purified to produce enantiopure crystals. This process does not occur naturally, but it can be found in mammalian cells. It has been shown to have an effect on sphingolipid metabolism and paclitaxel production in human cancer cells.
