| Application: | Dimethyl 2-oxoglutarate can undergo cylocondensation with dinucleophiles, such as 1,2-phenylenediamine, 2-aminophenol and 2-aminobenzenethiol to form novel heterocycles. |
| Application: | Dimethyl 2-oxoglutarate may be used to synthesize the conformationally constrained PNA (peptide nucleic acid) -monomer capable of binding thymine in a triplex motif. It may be used in the synthesis of 4-aryl kainic acid analogs, via highly stereoselective Michael addition reaction with nitrostyrene. |
| General description: | Dimethyl 2-oxoglutarate is a key intermediate formed during the Krebs cycle and an important nitrogen transporter in the biological metabolic pathways. The electrochemical behavior of dimethyl-2-oxoglutarate has been investigated by cyclic voltammetry, square wave voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry using a glassy carbon electrode. |
