It is mainly used in the synthesis of some natural products and some bioactive chiral drugs or antibiotic chiral drugs. For example, it is a key intermediate in synthesis of nerve regulator (R)-GABOB and brain metabolic accelerant S-oxiracetam (S-ORC). It can be deoxidized to (S)-(+)-3-Hydroxytetrahydrofuran which is an important intermediate of anti-AIDS drugs. It is also used in the synthesis of S(-)-3-hydroxy-4-bromobutyric acid which is a potential stabilizer. Chemical Properties Colorless to light yellow liquid. Uses (S)-3-Hydroxy-γ-butyrolactone can be used as an anticancer drug resistance inhibitor.
