P-Hydroxypropionate is shown by radiochemical techniques to be incorporated specifically into the C-3 residue of the p-lactam portion of clavulanic acid.
The synthesis of [4-3H]glutamate involved regioselective tritiation of monomethyl succinate, a two-step selective conversion of its free acid function into an aldehyde, and its subsequent conversion by the Strecker reaction into the corresponding a-aminonitrile and hence t o the target tritiated glutamate.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
