ETHYL 2-ACETOXY-2-METHYLACETOACETATE Usage And Synthesis

Uses

Ethyl 2-acetoxy-2-methylacetoacetate was used to prepare 2-acetolactate via hydrolysis with NaOH. It was also used in isolation and characterization of a novel thermophilic bacterium Geobacillus sp. for the production of acetoin and 2,3-butanediol.
