Application

Used to prepare pseudopeptide inhibitors for Ras farnesyl-protein transferase as well as selenomethionine.
(S)-(-)-α-Amino-γ-butyrolactone hydrobromide may be used as a building block to prepare:
  • β-ketoamide N-acylated-L-homoserine lactones (AHLs) as quorum sensing molecules
  • p-coumaroyl-HSL (homoserine lactone)
  • calpain and lipid peroxidation inhibitors
