methyl L-prolinate

Description:
Methyl L-prolinate, with the CAS number 2577-48-2, is an ester derived from L-proline, an amino acid, and methanol. This compound is characterized by its molecular structure, which includes a pyrrolidine ring, a carboxylate group, and a methyl ester functional group. Methyl L-prolinate is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pleasant odor. It is soluble in polar organic solvents, such as ethanol and methanol, but has limited solubility in non-polar solvents. The compound exhibits properties typical of esters, including the ability to participate in various chemical reactions, such as hydrolysis and transesterification. Methyl L-prolinate is of interest in organic synthesis and may serve as a chiral building block in the preparation of pharmaceuticals and other biologically active compounds. Additionally, it may exhibit biological activity, although specific pharmacological properties would require further investigation. As with many chemical substances, proper handling and safety precautions should be observed due to potential toxicity or reactivity.
