Methyl levulinate can be synthesized from glucose in the presence of a few drops of dilute sulfuric acid in methanol. Methyl levulinate can undergo Meerwein–Ponndorf–Verley (MPV) reduction in the presence of lewis acid zeolite like Hf-beta to give 4-hydroxypentanoates.
This compound belongs to the class of organic compounds known as gamma-keto acids and derivatives. These are organic compounds containing an aldehyde substituted with a keto group on the C4 carbon atom.
