Ethyl methoxyacetate was used as acyl donor during the preparation of enantiomers of several phenylethylamines, as acylation reagent for the aminolysis of 1-phenylethanamine and used in an industrial, lipase-catalyzed kinetic resolution of primary amine.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
