| Bioactivity | N-benzoyl-L-aspartic acid, a major metabolite of benzyl glucosinolate, can be used for modification of peptides or proteins[1]. | ||||||||||||
| Invitro | N-benzoyl-L-aspartic acid resists racemisation by aqueous acetic anhydride and evidence is adduced to show that they form internal anhydrides rather than oxazolones under these conditions[2]. | ||||||||||||
