(2R,3R)-2-Amino-3-methyloxybutanoic acid

Description:
(2R,3R)-2-Amino-3-methyloxybutanoic acid, also known as a derivative of the amino acid L-threonine, is characterized by its chiral centers at the second and third carbon atoms, which contribute to its specific stereochemistry. This compound features an amino group (-NH2) and a carboxylic acid group (-COOH), typical of amino acids, allowing it to participate in various biochemical reactions. The presence of a methoxy group (-OCH3) at the third carbon enhances its solubility in polar solvents and may influence its biological activity. This compound is likely to be involved in metabolic pathways and could serve as a building block for peptides or proteins. Its stereochemistry is crucial for its interaction with biological systems, as many enzymes and receptors are sensitive to the spatial arrangement of molecules. Additionally, the compound's properties, such as melting point, solubility, and reactivity, are influenced by its functional groups and overall molecular structure, making it of interest in both synthetic and medicinal chemistry.
