:(R)-2-AMINOMETHYL-4-METHYL-PENTANOIC ACID
Description:
(R)-2-Aminomethyl-4-methyl-pentanoic acid, also known as (R)-AMPA, is an amino acid derivative characterized by its chiral center, which contributes to its specific biological activity. This compound features a pentanoic acid backbone with an amino group and a methyl group, influencing its solubility and reactivity. It is typically a white to off-white crystalline solid, soluble in water and polar organic solvents, making it suitable for various applications in biochemistry and pharmaceuticals. The presence of the amino group allows it to participate in peptide bond formation, while the carboxylic acid group can engage in acid-base reactions. (R)-AMPA is of particular interest in the field of neuroscience, as it is a potent agonist of the AMPA receptor, playing a crucial role in synaptic transmission and plasticity. Its stereochemistry is essential for its biological function, as the (R) configuration is often associated with enhanced receptor binding and activity compared to its (S) counterpart. Overall, (R)-2-Aminomethyl-4-methyl-pentanoic acid is a significant compound in research and therapeutic contexts.
