General description
L-(+)-tartaric acid is an organic compound that is commonly used as a chiral auxiliary in reactions that involve the addition of a chiral nucleophile. It is also used as a resolving agent for the separation of enantiomers from a racemic mixture. Additionally, L-(+)-tartaric acid can also be used as a building block for the synthesis of other chiral compounds.
Application
L- (+)-Tartaric acid can be used as:
- A co-former for the synthesis of etravirine co-crystals.
- A mobile phase additive in thin-layer chromatography.

Acid ecto-phosphatases are enzymes that hydrolyze phosphomonoesters in the acidic pH range with their active sites facing the extacellular medium. Their activities can be measured in living cells. In bacteria and protozoan pathogens, acid ecto-phosphatases have been associated with the

The formation of diastereomeric cocrystals of malic acid and tartaric acid was investigated by liquid-assisted grinding in the solid state. We demonstrate that racemic malic acid can be converted into two distinct diastereomeric cocrystal phases by grinding with a single
