Application
- Lipase-catalyzed kinetic resolution of novel antitubercular benzoxazole derivatives.: This study used tert-Butyl methyl ether in the lipase-catalyzed kinetic resolution of benzoxazole derivatives, demonstrating its application in the synthesis of enantiomerically pure compounds important for medicinal chemistry (Łukowska-Chojnacka et al., 2018).
- A chemoenzymatic approach to the synthesis of enantiomerically pure (S)-3-hydroxy-gamma-butyrolactone.: The research developed a chemoenzymatic method using tert-Butyl methyl ether for synthesizing enantiomerically pure compounds, highlighting its utility in producing important chiral building blocks for pharmaceuticals (Lee et al., 2008).
- Determination of roxatidine in human plasma by liquid chromatography/electrospray mass spectrometry and application to a clinical pharmacokinetic study.: This study demonstrated the use of tert-Butyl methyl ether in sample preparation for the analysis of roxatidine in human plasma, emphasizing its role in pharmacokinetic studies (Shin et al., 2007).
- Analysis of coumarin 7-hydroxylation activity of cytochrome P450 2A6 using random mutagenesis.: This paper used tert-Butyl methyl ether in the study of enzyme activity, showing its effectiveness in biochemical assays involving cytochrome P450 enzymes (Kim et al., 2005).
- Comparative fatty acid selectivity of lipases in esterification reactions with glycerol and diol analogues in organic media.: The research employed tert-Butyl methyl ether to investigate lipase selectivity in esterification reactions, illustrating its importance in biocatalysis and industrial applications of enzymatic processes (Lee & Parkin, 2000).
