(S)-Methyl 1-methylpyrrolidine-2-carboxylate(CAT: L029829) is a chiral N-methylated pyrrolidine ester featuring the (S)-configuration, making it an important building block in asymmetric synthesis. Its five-membered nitrogen-containing ring provides conformational rigidity and stereocontrol, while the ester functionality allows for diverse downstream modifications including amidation and hydrolysis. This compound is commonly used in the preparation of enantiomerically pure pharmaceuticals, peptide mimetics, and bioactive heterocycles. Its well-defined stereochemistry makes it especially valuable for structure–activity relationship (SAR) studies and chiral catalyst design. Supplied at high purity, it is ideal for medicinal chemistry, stereoselective synthesis, and the development of CNS-active or antiviral agents.
