(2R,3S,4S,5R)-3-(3,4-difluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)-4,5-dimethyl-5-(trifluoromethyl)tetrahydrofuran-2-carboxylic acid

Used as a pharmaceutical intermediate.
Overview
(2R,3S,4S,5R)-3-(3,4-Difluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)-4,5-dimethyl-5-(trifluoromethyl)tetrahydrofuran-2-carboxylic acid serves as a key chiral intermediate in synthesizing suzetrigine, a sodium channel blocker for neuropathic pain. This complex tetrahydrofuran carboxylic acid undergoes selective amidation and cyclization reactions to construct the essential stereospecific core structure, enabling precise development of targeted neurological therapeutics with enhanced binding specificity.
