(S)-3-aminoPentanoic acid

Description:
(S)-3-Aminopentanoic acid, also known as L-3-aminopentanoic acid, is an amino acid characterized by its aliphatic chain and the presence of an amino group (-NH2) and a carboxylic acid group (-COOH). It is a chiral compound, with the (S) configuration indicating the specific spatial arrangement of its atoms. This substance is typically a white crystalline solid that is soluble in water, reflecting its polar functional groups. It plays a role in various biochemical processes and can serve as a building block for peptide synthesis. The presence of the amino group allows it to participate in reactions typical of amino acids, such as forming peptide bonds. Its CAS number, 14389-77-6, is a unique identifier that facilitates its identification in chemical databases. As with many amino acids, it may exhibit zwitterionic behavior in solution, where it can exist in both positively and negatively charged forms depending on the pH. Overall, (S)-3-aminopentanoic acid is significant in both biological systems and synthetic chemistry.
