4-FLUORO-3-(TRIFLUOROMETHYL)-DL-PHENYLALANINE

Description:
4-Fluoro-3-(trifluoromethyl)-DL-phenylalanine is an amino acid derivative characterized by the presence of a fluorine atom and a trifluoromethyl group attached to the phenylalanine backbone. This compound features a chiral center, resulting in two enantiomers, although the DL designation indicates a racemic mixture of both forms. The trifluoromethyl group contributes to the compound's lipophilicity and can influence its biological activity, making it of interest in medicinal chemistry and drug design. The presence of fluorine atoms often enhances metabolic stability and alters the pharmacokinetic properties of compounds. This substance may be utilized in research related to protein synthesis, receptor binding studies, or as a building block in the synthesis of more complex molecules. Its unique electronic and steric properties can also make it a valuable tool in the development of pharmaceuticals targeting specific biological pathways. Safety and handling precautions should be observed due to the potential toxicity associated with fluorinated compounds.
