<span class="text-smallcaps">L</span>-Glutamic acid, 5-cyclohexyl 1-(phenylmethyl) ester, hydrochloride (1:1)

Description:

L-Glutamic acid, 5-cyclohexyl 1-(phenylmethyl) ester, hydrochloride (1:1) is a chemical compound characterized by its structure, which includes a glutamic acid backbone modified with a cyclohexyl group and a phenylmethyl ester. This compound is typically a white to off-white crystalline solid, soluble in water due to the presence of the hydrochloride salt form, which enhances its solubility compared to the free base. It exhibits properties typical of amino acids, including the ability to participate in various biochemical reactions, particularly in neurotransmission, as glutamic acid is a key excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. The presence of the cyclohexyl and phenylmethyl groups may influence its pharmacological properties, potentially affecting its interaction with biological targets. As with many amino acid derivatives, it may also exhibit chirality, with specific optical activity depending on the configuration of the amino acid. Safety and handling precautions should be observed, as with all chemical substances, particularly in laboratory settings.
