General Description
tert-Butyl acetoacetate (t-BAA) is a cheap and easy to store commercial reagent. Reaction demonstrated that the more hindered tert-butyl acetoacetate (t-BAA, la) is ca.15-20-fold more reactive than the more commonly used methyl or ethyl analogs. It is widely employed as an acetoacetylating reagent.
Flammability and Explosibility
Flammable
Biochem/physiol Actions
β-Actin modulates cell growth, migration and the G-actin pool. Mutations in ACTB leads to pleiotropic developmental disorder.
Purification Methods
Distil it under reduced pressure through a short column. [Lawesson et al. Org Synth Coll Vol V 155 1973, Lawesson et al. Org Synth 42 28 1962, Beilstein 3 IV 1536.] HARMFUL VAPOUR.
