CAS 26531-82-8: methyl (2S)-amino(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethanoate

Description:Methyl (2S)-amino(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethanoate, also known as methyl L-tyrosinate, is an amino acid derivative characterized by its structural features that include an amino group, a hydroxyl group, and an ethanoate moiety. This compound is a methyl ester of L-tyrosine, which is an essential amino acid involved in protein synthesis and serves as a precursor for neurotransmitters such as dopamine and norepinephrine. The presence of the hydroxyl group on the aromatic ring enhances its solubility in polar solvents and contributes to its reactivity. Methyl L-tyrosinate is typically a white to off-white crystalline solid and is soluble in water and organic solvents like ethanol. It is used in various biochemical applications, including studies related to neurotransmitter synthesis and as a building block in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals. Additionally, its chirality (2S configuration) is significant in biological systems, as it can influence the compound's interaction with enzymes and receptors.
