L-Alanine,N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)-N-(2-methoxyacetyl)-, methyl ester

Description:

L-Alanine, N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)-N-(2-methoxyacetyl)-, methyl ester, identified by CAS number 69516-34-3, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of amino acid derivatives. This substance features an alanine backbone, which is an α-amino acid, and is modified with a dimethylphenyl group and a methoxyacetyl moiety. The presence of the methyl ester functional group indicates that it is a methyl ester derivative, which can influence its solubility and reactivity. The compound is likely to exhibit characteristics typical of amino acids, such as the ability to participate in peptide bond formation, and may also display specific biological activities due to its structural modifications. Its unique substituents may enhance lipophilicity and alter its interaction with biological systems, making it of interest in pharmaceutical and biochemical research. As with many organic compounds, its stability, reactivity, and potential applications would depend on the specific conditions under which it is used.
