CAS 103854-26-8
:2,6-Dimethyl-L-phenylalanine
Description:
2,6-Dimethyl-L-phenylalanine, identified by its CAS number 103854-26-8, is an amino acid derivative that features a phenylalanine backbone with two methyl groups attached to the 2 and 6 positions of the aromatic ring. This modification enhances its hydrophobic characteristics compared to standard phenylalanine, potentially influencing its interactions in biological systems. The compound is typically characterized by its white crystalline solid form and is soluble in organic solvents, while exhibiting limited solubility in water. It is often utilized in peptide synthesis and as a building block in the development of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the design of peptide-based drugs. The presence of the methyl groups can also affect the compound's steric properties and its ability to participate in hydrogen bonding, which may influence its biological activity and stability. As with many amino acid derivatives, it is important to handle this compound with care, adhering to safety protocols to mitigate any potential hazards associated with its use.
