Glycine, N-(2-phenylethyl)-, ethyl ester

Description:
Glycine, N-(2-phenylethyl)-, ethyl ester, with the CAS number 54608-35-4, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of amino acid derivatives. It features a glycine backbone, which is the simplest amino acid, modified by the addition of a 2-phenylethyl group and an ethyl ester functional group. This compound is characterized by its relatively low molecular weight and the presence of both hydrophilic (the amino and carboxyl groups) and hydrophobic (the phenyl and ethyl groups) regions, which can influence its solubility and reactivity. Glycine derivatives are often studied for their potential biological activities, including roles in neurotransmission and as precursors in the synthesis of various biomolecules. The ethyl ester form may enhance lipophilicity, potentially affecting its absorption and distribution in biological systems. As with many amino acid derivatives, it may exhibit properties such as being a zwitterion at physiological pH, contributing to its interactions in biochemical pathways. Safety and handling considerations should be observed, as with all chemical substances.
