3-(1-Naphthyl)-L-alanine

Description:

3-(1-Naphthyl)-L-alanine, with the CAS number 55516-54-6, is an amino acid derivative characterized by the presence of a naphthyl group attached to the alpha carbon of the L-alanine structure. This compound features a chiral center, which contributes to its potential biological activity and interactions. It is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in polar solvents, reflecting its amino acid nature. The naphthyl moiety can influence the compound's hydrophobicity and may play a role in its interactions with biological targets, making it of interest in medicinal chemistry and pharmacology. The compound may exhibit unique properties such as fluorescence or specific binding affinities due to the aromatic naphthyl group. Its synthesis often involves standard organic chemistry techniques, including coupling reactions. As with many amino acid derivatives, it may be studied for its potential applications in drug design, particularly in the development of compounds that target specific receptors or enzymes in biological systems.
