D-3,3-Diphenylalanine

Description:
D-3,3-Diphenylalanine is a non-proteinogenic amino acid characterized by the presence of two phenyl groups attached to the beta carbon of the alanine backbone. This compound is notable for its unique structural properties, which contribute to its potential applications in various fields, including materials science and biochemistry. The presence of the bulky phenyl groups enhances its hydrophobicity, influencing its solubility and interactions in biological systems. D-3,3-Diphenylalanine can participate in the formation of peptide bonds, leading to the synthesis of peptides with specific functionalities. Its chirality, being a D-amino acid, distinguishes it from its L-counterpart, affecting its biological activity and interactions with enzymes and receptors. Additionally, this compound has garnered interest in the study of self-assembling peptides and nanostructures, as its unique properties can lead to the formation of stable aggregates or hydrogels. Overall, D-3,3-Diphenylalanine serves as a valuable building block in the design of novel biomaterials and therapeutic agents.
