L-Tryptophan, phenylmethyl ester, hydrochloride (1:1)

Description:
L-Tryptophan, phenylmethyl ester, hydrochloride (1:1), with the CAS number 35858-81-2, is a chemical compound derived from the amino acid L-tryptophan. It is characterized by its esterified form, where the carboxyl group of L-tryptophan is esterified with phenylmethanol (benzyl alcohol), resulting in a phenylmethyl ester. The hydrochloride designation indicates that the compound is in its salt form, which enhances its solubility in water and stability. This compound is often used in biochemical research and pharmaceutical applications due to its role as a precursor in the biosynthesis of serotonin, a critical neurotransmitter. L-Tryptophan derivatives are known for their potential effects on mood regulation and sleep patterns. The compound typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline powder and is soluble in water and alcohol. Its properties, such as melting point and specific optical rotation, may vary based on purity and environmental conditions. Safety data should be consulted for handling and usage, as with all chemical substances.
