【Abstract】 (S)-3-hydroxy-tetrahydrofuran was synthesized from L-malic acid by esterification,reduction,cyclization.The chemical structures of the target compound was identified by element analysis,IR,NMR andMS spectra.The total yield and the purity of the product were 41% and 99.2%,the optical purity was 95.8%.This optimal synthetic procedure with lower cost and mild reaction conditions be worthy to have a further pilot manufacture.更多还原
