2,4-Dinitro-L-phenylalanine

Description:
2,4-Dinitro-L-phenylalanine is an organic compound characterized by the presence of two nitro groups (-NO2) attached to the phenylalanine structure, specifically at the 2 and 4 positions of the aromatic ring. This compound is a derivative of the amino acid phenylalanine, which is essential for protein synthesis and is a precursor for neurotransmitters. The introduction of nitro groups significantly alters its chemical properties, making it more polar and potentially more reactive than its parent compound. 2,4-Dinitro-L-phenylalanine is often used in biochemical research, particularly in studies involving enzyme inhibition and protein interactions. Its molecular structure includes both an amino group (-NH2) and a carboxylic acid group (-COOH), which contribute to its classification as an amino acid derivative. The compound is typically handled with care due to the presence of nitro groups, which can be associated with explosive properties under certain conditions. As with many nitro compounds, it may also exhibit toxicity, necessitating appropriate safety measures during handling and experimentation.
