A novel convenient preparation of dihydroxyacetone phosphate and its use in enzymatic aldol reactions

摘要

A new preparation of the stable barium salt of 2,5-bis(phosphonooxymethyl)-2,5-diethoxy-1,4-dioxane Ba-Image is described, which by treatment with DOWEX 50 H+ gives dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) in high yield. DHAP prepared by this method was used for aldolase-catalyzed condensations.
