CAS 74126-25-3
:D-Tryptophan, ethylester
Description:
D-Tryptophan ethyl ester, with the CAS number 74126-25-3, is an ester derivative of the amino acid D-Tryptophan. It is characterized by its structure, which includes an ethyl group attached to the carboxylic acid functional group of D-Tryptophan, enhancing its lipophilicity compared to the parent amino acid. This modification can influence its solubility and bioavailability. D-Tryptophan itself is an essential amino acid that serves as a precursor for serotonin, a neurotransmitter involved in mood regulation. The ethyl ester form may exhibit different pharmacokinetic properties, potentially affecting its absorption and metabolism in biological systems. D-Tryptophan ethyl ester is often studied for its potential applications in biochemistry and pharmacology, particularly in relation to neurotransmitter synthesis and its effects on mood and sleep. As with many amino acid derivatives, it may also have implications in nutritional supplements and therapeutic formulations. Safety and handling precautions should be observed, as with any chemical substance, due to potential biological activity.
