(αR)-α-Amino-3-thiopheneacetic acid

Description:
(αR)-α-Amino-3-thiopheneacetic acid, also known as thienylalanine, is an amino acid derivative characterized by the presence of a thiophene ring attached to the α-carbon of the amino acid structure. This compound features an amino group (-NH2), a carboxylic acid group (-COOH), and a thiophene moiety, which contributes to its unique properties. It is typically a white to off-white crystalline solid and is soluble in water, reflecting its polar nature due to the amino and carboxylic acid functional groups. The thiophene ring imparts distinct electronic and steric characteristics, influencing its reactivity and interactions in biological systems. This compound is of interest in pharmaceutical research and biochemical studies, particularly in the context of its potential roles in neurotransmission and as a building block for the synthesis of more complex molecules. Its stereochemistry, indicated by the (αR) designation, suggests specific spatial arrangements that can affect its biological activity and interactions with receptors or enzymes.
