2-amino-2-(3-chlorophenyl)propanoic acid

Description:
2-amino-2-(3-chlorophenyl)propanoic acid, also known as a derivative of phenylalanine, is an amino acid characterized by the presence of an amino group (-NH2), a carboxylic acid group (-COOH), and a chlorinated phenyl group. This compound features a propanoic acid backbone with a chlorine atom substituted at the meta position of the phenyl ring, which influences its chemical reactivity and biological activity. It is typically a white to off-white crystalline solid that is soluble in water and polar organic solvents. The presence of the amino and carboxylic acid functional groups allows it to participate in various chemical reactions, including peptide bond formation. This compound may exhibit biological activity, potentially acting as a neurotransmitter or modulator due to its structural similarity to other amino acids. Its unique properties make it of interest in pharmaceutical research and development, particularly in the context of drug design and synthesis. Safety data should be consulted for handling and usage, as with any chemical substance.
