Tryptophan, ethyl ester, hydrochloride (1:1)

Description:
Tryptophan, ethyl ester, hydrochloride (1:1) is a chemical compound derived from the amino acid tryptophan, which is essential for protein synthesis and serves as a precursor for neurotransmitters such as serotonin. This compound is characterized by its ethyl ester form, which enhances its solubility and bioavailability compared to the free amino acid. As a hydrochloride salt, it is typically more stable and easier to handle in laboratory and pharmaceutical applications. The compound appears as a white to off-white crystalline powder and is hygroscopic, meaning it can absorb moisture from the air. It is soluble in water and alcohol, making it suitable for various biochemical applications. Tryptophan, ethyl ester, hydrochloride is often used in research related to metabolic pathways, nutritional studies, and the synthesis of pharmaceuticals. Safety data indicates that, like many amino acid derivatives, it should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes. Proper storage conditions are essential to maintain its stability and efficacy.
