A concise, asymmetric synthesis of (2R,3R)-3-hydroxyaspartic acid.

abstract：:In an attempt to increase our knowledge regarding the mechanisms of surfactant membrane interaction, we studied the action of several anionic and cationic amino acid-based surfactants on membrane fluidity using fluorescence anisotropy. Anisotropy measurements demonstrated that almost all of the surfactants studied dis...
