3-AMINO-2-(TRIFLUOROMETHYL)PROPIONIC ACID

Description:
3-Amino-2-(trifluoromethyl)propionic acid, with the CAS number 122490-10-2, is an amino acid derivative characterized by the presence of a trifluoromethyl group attached to the second carbon of the propionic acid backbone. This compound features an amino group (-NH2) at the third carbon, contributing to its classification as an amino acid. The trifluoromethyl group is known for imparting unique electronic and steric properties, which can influence the compound's reactivity and interactions in biological systems. Typically, this substance is a white crystalline solid at room temperature and is soluble in polar solvents due to the presence of the carboxylic acid and amino functional groups. Its structural characteristics suggest potential applications in pharmaceuticals, particularly in the development of drugs that target specific biological pathways. Additionally, the trifluoromethyl moiety may enhance the lipophilicity and metabolic stability of compounds, making it a valuable building block in medicinal chemistry.
