| Main Purpose | L-Glutamic acid methyl ester is an amino acid ester (mostly hydrochloride), mainly used as an intermediate in the synthesis of polypeptides, drugs and fine chemicals; esterified carboxyl groups can improve reaction selectivity or solubility/manipulation properties, and can be subsequently hydrolyzed back to carboxylic acids. It is also used in chiral synthesis, derivatization and analytical methods. |
