CAS 7597-66-2
:2-butylnorleucine
Description:
2-Butylnorleucine, with the CAS number 7597-66-2, is an amino acid derivative that features a branched alkyl chain. It is a non-proteinogenic amino acid, meaning it is not incorporated into proteins during translation. This compound is characterized by its hydrophobic properties due to the presence of the butyl group, which influences its solubility and interaction with biological membranes. 2-Butylnorleucine may exhibit unique biological activities, making it of interest in various fields, including medicinal chemistry and biochemistry. Its structure includes a central carbon atom bonded to an amino group, a carboxylic acid group, and a butyl side chain, which contributes to its overall stability and reactivity. The presence of the butyl group can also affect its steric hindrance and conformational flexibility, potentially influencing its interactions with enzymes or receptors. As with many amino acid derivatives, 2-butylnorleucine may be studied for its potential applications in drug design and development, particularly in the context of modifying peptide structures for enhanced biological activity.
