<span class="text-smallcaps">L</span>-Tyrosine, 3-hydroxy-α-methyl-, methyl ester, hydrochloride (1:1)

Description:
L-Tyrosine, 3-hydroxy-α-methyl-, methyl ester, hydrochloride (1:1) is a derivative of the amino acid tyrosine, characterized by the presence of a methyl ester group and a hydrochloride salt form. This compound is typically a white to off-white crystalline powder, soluble in water due to the presence of the hydrochloride, which enhances its solubility. It is known for its role in the biosynthesis of neurotransmitters and hormones, particularly dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine. The methyl ester modification can influence its bioavailability and metabolic pathways. L-Tyrosine itself is essential for protein synthesis and is involved in various physiological processes, including the production of melanin and thyroid hormones. As a hydrochloride salt, it may exhibit improved stability and shelf life compared to its free base form. This compound is often utilized in biochemical research and may have applications in nutritional supplements, particularly for enhancing cognitive function and stress response. Safety data should be consulted for handling and usage, as with any chemical substance.
