O-Methyl-L-tyrosine methyl ester

Description:
O-Methyl-L-tyrosine methyl ester, with the CAS number 17355-19-0, is a derivative of the amino acid tyrosine, characterized by the presence of a methoxy group at the ortho position of the aromatic ring and a methyl ester functional group. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in organic solvents such as methanol and ethanol, but may have limited solubility in water. It is often used in biochemical research and pharmaceutical applications due to its role as a precursor in the synthesis of various neurotransmitters and its potential influence on metabolic pathways. The methyl ester form enhances its lipophilicity, which can affect its bioavailability and transport across biological membranes. As a non-proteinogenic amino acid, O-Methyl-L-tyrosine methyl ester can serve as a useful tool in studying tyrosine metabolism and related physiological processes. Safety data should be consulted for handling and usage, as with any chemical substance.
