p-Azido-L-phenylalanine

Description:

p-Azido-L-phenylalanine is a non-canonical amino acid that features an azide functional group (-N3) attached to the para position of the phenyl ring of phenylalanine. This compound is characterized by its unique reactivity due to the presence of the azide group, which can participate in various chemical reactions, including click chemistry, making it valuable in bioconjugation and labeling studies. It is typically used in biochemical research, particularly in the study of protein interactions and modifications. The azide group is known for its stability under physiological conditions, yet it can be transformed into other functional groups through reduction or other chemical transformations. p-Azido-L-phenylalanine is often utilized in the synthesis of peptides and proteins, allowing researchers to introduce specific functionalities into biomolecules. As with many azide-containing compounds, safety precautions should be observed due to the potential for explosive decomposition under certain conditions. Overall, p-Azido-L-phenylalanine serves as a versatile tool in chemical biology and materials science.
