(R)-2-METHYLCYSTEINE HYDROCHLORIDE

Description:

(R)-2-Methylcysteine hydrochloride is an amino acid derivative characterized by its chiral center, which contributes to its specific stereochemistry. As a hydrochloride salt, it is typically more soluble in water compared to its free base form, enhancing its utility in various applications, particularly in biochemical and pharmaceutical contexts. This compound features a thiol (-SH) group, which is significant for its reactivity and potential role in redox reactions. The presence of the methyl group at the second carbon position distinguishes it from other cysteine derivatives, influencing its biological activity and interactions. (R)-2-Methylcysteine is often studied for its potential antioxidant properties and its role in protein synthesis. Its hydrochloride form is commonly used in research and development, particularly in studies related to metabolism and cellular functions. As with many amino acids, it may also play a role in various metabolic pathways, contributing to the synthesis of proteins and other biomolecules. Safety and handling precautions should be observed, as with all chemical substances, due to its biological activity.

2-Methyl-L-cysteine hydrochloride

CAS: 148766-37-4

2-Methyl-L-cysteine hydrochloride is a synthetic molecule that is used as an organic solvent. It can be produced from the reaction of an inorganic base with an ester hydrochloride and has been shown to have stereoselective properties. The spontaneous formation of this molecule was enhanced by the addition of hydrochloric acid, which increased the reaction yield. 2-Methyl-L-cysteine hydrochloride has been shown to react spontaneously with inorganic materials, such as titanium dioxide, which causes a color change from white to yellow.
