Pentanoic acid, 3-amino-4-methyl-, methyl ester, hydrochloride (1:1)

Description:

Pentanoic acid, 3-amino-4-methyl-, methyl ester, hydrochloride (1:1) is a chemical compound characterized by its structure, which includes a pentanoic acid backbone with an amino group and a methyl ester functional group. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid, soluble in water due to the presence of the hydrochloride salt form, which enhances its solubility compared to the free base. The presence of the amino group suggests that it may exhibit basic properties, while the ester functionality indicates potential reactivity in esterification or hydrolysis reactions. It may also participate in various biological processes, given its structural features. The hydrochloride form implies that it is a salt, which can influence its stability and handling characteristics. This compound may be of interest in pharmaceutical applications, particularly in drug development, due to its potential biological activity and the ability to modify its properties through structural variations. As with all chemical substances, proper safety measures should be taken when handling this compound.
