Selective monobenzylation of 2,2-bis(hydroxymethyl)propionic acid (bis-MPA) to yield an AB linear monomer and analogous linear oligomers

, (2020)
The synthesis of a mono-benzylated AB monomer based on bis-MPA is explored and accomplished via a three-step synthesis without column chromatography. This optimized synthesis utilizes a generic acid-catalyzed esterification of bis-MPA to the ethyl ester.
