Application

mono-Methyl fumarate can be used as a reactant to synthesize:
  • Jumonji C domain-containing histone demethylases (JCHDMs) inhibitor.
  • (−)-Xylariamide A, a fungal metabolite.
  • (±)-Methoxyfumimycin ethyl ester, a potential bacterial peptide deformylase inhibitor.

It is also a wide spectrum antibacterial agent with a powerful antioxidant activity.
