DL-Phenylethanolamine

CAS: 7568-93-6

DL-Phenylethanolamine is a hydroxy amine that is used in the synthesis of other chemicals. It is obtained by reacting phenylacetic acid with hydroxylamine. DL-Phenylethanolamine is an intermediate in the synthesis of the anti-inflammatory drug Indomethacin. This molecule contains a asymmetric carbon atom, which can be distinguished using infrared spectroscopy. The uptake of DL-phenylethanolamine into cells can be measured by detecting the release of amines from lysosomes and mitochondria. In addition, this molecule has conformational properties that can be detected by NMR spectroscopy, making it useful for detection sensitivity and identification purposes.
