L-Threonine, N-methyl-O-(phenylmethyl)-, hydrochloride

Description:

L-Threonine, N-methyl-O-(phenylmethyl)-, hydrochloride is a synthetic derivative of the amino acid threonine, characterized by the presence of a methyl group and a phenylmethyl (benzyl) group attached to the threonine structure. This compound is typically a white to off-white crystalline solid, soluble in water due to the presence of the hydrochloride salt form, which enhances its solubility and stability. It is often used in biochemical research and pharmaceutical applications, particularly in studies related to protein synthesis and metabolic pathways involving amino acids. The presence of the N-methyl and O-(phenylmethyl) substituents can influence its biological activity and interactions with enzymes or receptors. As with many amino acid derivatives, it may exhibit specific optical activity due to its chiral centers. Safety data should be consulted for handling and usage, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper laboratory practices are followed.
