58957-60-1 Usage
General Description
(R*,S*)-()-dihydro-5-(1-hydroxyethyl)-3H-furan-2-one, also known as maltol, is a naturally occurring organic compound that is commonly found in various food products, especially those that have been subjected to heat treatment or fermentation processes. It is widely used as a flavor enhancer and fragrance ingredient in the food and beverage industry. Maltol has a sweet, caramel-like aroma and is often used to impart a pleasant, sweet taste to a range of products, including baked goods, confectionery, and beverages. It also has antioxidant properties and is being investigated for potential therapeutic applications in the treatment of various diseases.

Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 58957-60-1 includes 8 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 5 digits, 5,8,9,5 and 7 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 6 and 0 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 58957-60:
(7*5)+(6*8)+(5*9)+(4*5)+(3*7)+(2*6)+(1*0)=181
181 % 10 = 1
So 58957-60-1 is a valid CAS Registry Number.

(+/-)-erythro-γ,δ-Dihydroxycarboxylic Acid Lactones from a β-Lithiopropionate Equivalent and α-Chloroaldehydes
Plewe, Michael,Schmidt, Richard R.
, p. 534 - 536 (2007/10/02)
Reaction of β-ethylthio-β-lithioacrylate 1A with α-chloroaldehydes furnished predominantly the erythro products 3, which were isolated as γ-lactones 4.At room temperature intermediates 3 are transformed into the (+/-)-erythro-γ,δ-dihydroxycarboxylic acid γ-lactones 8.Raney nickel treatment provided interesting natural γ-lactone derivatives; thus, from erythro-8c the socalled L-factor erythro-9c was obtained.Similarly, from β-methoxy β-lithioacrylate 10A the (+/-)-erythro-γ,δ-dihydroxycarboxylic acid δ-lactone erythro-11 was gained.
