L-Tryptophan,N-[(phenylmethoxy)carbonyl]-, methyl ester

Description:

L-Tryptophan, N-[(phenylmethoxy)carbonyl]-, methyl ester, with the CAS number 2717-76-2, is a derivative of the essential amino acid L-Tryptophan. This compound features a phenylmethoxycarbonyl group, which enhances its stability and solubility compared to its parent amino acid. It is typically characterized by its white to off-white crystalline appearance and is soluble in organic solvents such as methanol and ethanol, but less soluble in water. The presence of the methyl ester group suggests that it may exhibit different reactivity and biological properties compared to L-Tryptophan itself. This compound is often utilized in biochemical research and synthesis, particularly in studies related to protein synthesis and neurotransmitter function, as L-Tryptophan is a precursor to serotonin. Additionally, its structural modifications may influence its pharmacokinetics and bioavailability, making it of interest in pharmaceutical applications. As with many amino acid derivatives, it is important to handle this compound with care, following appropriate safety protocols.
