Dibenzoyl-L-tartaric acid CAS:743-38-6, also known as (-)-Dibenzoyl-L-tartaric acid or L-Dibenzoyltartaric acid, is an important chiral tartaric acid derivative and functional building block for organic and asymmetric synthesis. It has the molecular formula C18H14O8 and a molecular weight of 358.30 g/mol.
Chiral Reagent for Organic Synthesis
Dibenzoyl-L-tartaric acid is particularly valuable in chiral chemistry, optical resolution, asymmetric synthesis, and pharmaceutical-related research. Its defined stereochemistry and functionalized tartaric acid framework make it useful for preparing and studying chiral compounds.
As a member of the dibenzoyltartaric acid family, it can be used as a chiral building block and resolving agent in organic synthesis. Commercial chemical references also list Dibenzoyl-L-tartaric acid among chiral building blocks and optical resolving agents.
