:DL-Phenylalanine, methyl ester
Description:
DL-Phenylalanine, methyl ester is an organic compound that belongs to the class of amino acid derivatives. It is a methyl ester of phenylalanine, an essential amino acid that plays a crucial role in protein synthesis and is a precursor for neurotransmitters. This compound exists as a white to off-white crystalline powder and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and methanol, but has limited solubility in water. DL-Phenylalanine, methyl ester is often used in biochemical research and pharmaceutical applications due to its potential role in enhancing mood and alleviating pain, as it may inhibit the enzyme that breaks down endorphins. It is important to note that the "DL" prefix indicates that the substance is a racemic mixture, containing both the D- and L- forms of phenylalanine. Safety data should be consulted before handling, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper precautions are taken.

CAS:Controlled ProductFormula:C10H13NO2Color and Shape:NeatMolecular weight:179.216DL-phenylalanine methyl ester
CAS:<p>DL-Phenylalanine methyl ester is a pharmaceutical drug that is used in the treatment of bladder cancer. It is an ester of DL-phenylalanine, which is an amino acid. The drug binds to the active site of protease enzymes and inhibits their activity. This inhibition prevents the breakdown of proteins in cells, which may lead to cell death. DL-Phenylalanine methyl ester also has antihypertensive properties, which may be due to its ability to inhibit angiotensin II production or block sodium channels on vascular smooth muscle cells.</p>Formula:C10H13NO2Purity:Min. 95%Molecular weight:179.22 g/mol
