A building block for stereoselectively preparing cis-2-enoates. Ethyl cis-3-bromoacrylate is a nucleoside analogue, used for the synthesis of adenosine and uridine. It is a stereoselective nucleophilic addition reagent, specifically reacting with alkyl halides that exhibit electron deficiency. The reaction follows a two-step process involving the intermediate desilylation of the alkyl bromide. Initially, the acrylate group engages in a nucleophilic attack on the alkyl group, followed by the release of bromide ion from the double bond and subsequent substitution by the ethyl group. Ethyl cis-3-bromoacrylate shows hydrolase activity against a range of ester substrates and conjugated analogues in vitro.
