:D-Leucine, ethyl ester, hydrochloride (1:1)
Description:
D-Leucine, ethyl ester, hydrochloride (1:1) is a derivative of the amino acid leucine, which is essential for protein synthesis and plays a critical role in muscle metabolism. This compound is characterized by its ethyl ester form, which enhances its solubility and bioavailability compared to the free amino acid. The hydrochloride salt form indicates that it is combined with hydrochloric acid, which typically improves stability and solubility in aqueous solutions. D-Leucine is known for its role in promoting muscle growth and recovery, making it of interest in nutritional and pharmaceutical applications. The compound is generally white to off-white in appearance and is soluble in water and alcohol, which facilitates its use in various formulations. As with many amino acid derivatives, it may exhibit specific optical activity due to the presence of chiral centers, and its pharmacological properties can be influenced by the esterification and salt formation. Safety and handling precautions should be observed, as with any chemical substance, particularly in laboratory or industrial settings.

D-Leucine ethyl ester hydrochloride
CAS:<p>D-Leucine ethyl ester hydrochloride is a synthetic amino acid with the chemical formula C5H11NO3. It is an ammonium salt of leucine that has been modified by replacing the side chain carboxylic acid group with an ethyl ester. This modification prevents D-leucine from being metabolized as a source of energy and instead makes it a useful probe for studying enzyme catalysis. D-Leucine ethyl ester hydrochloride is used to study intramolecular reactions in proteins, such as peptides and tripeptides, by probing their backbone conformation.</p>Formula:C8H17NO2•HClPurity:Min. 95%Color and Shape:PowderMolecular weight:195.69 g/molEthyl D-leucinate hydrochloride
