Phenylalanine, 3-(aminomethyl)-, dihydrochloride

Description:

Phenylalanine, 3-(aminomethyl)-, dihydrochloride, also known as 3-(Aminomethyl)phenylalanine dihydrochloride, is an amino acid derivative characterized by the presence of an amino group and a phenyl group. It is a white to off-white crystalline powder that is soluble in water, making it suitable for various biochemical applications. The compound features a primary amine and a carboxylic acid functional group, which allows it to participate in peptide bond formation, thus playing a role in protein synthesis. Its dihydrochloride form indicates that it is a salt formed with hydrochloric acid, enhancing its solubility and stability in aqueous solutions. This substance is often used in research and pharmaceutical applications, particularly in studies related to neurotransmitter synthesis and metabolic pathways. Additionally, it may have implications in the development of therapeutic agents due to its structural similarity to naturally occurring amino acids. Safety data should be consulted for handling and usage, as with all chemical substances.
