3,5-Diiodo-L-tyrosine methyl ester

Description:
3,5-Diiodo-L-tyrosine methyl ester is a synthetic derivative of the amino acid tyrosine, characterized by the presence of two iodine atoms at the 3 and 5 positions of the aromatic ring, along with a methyl ester functional group. This compound is typically used in biochemical research and pharmaceutical applications due to its potential role in studying thyroid hormone activity and its effects on metabolic processes. The presence of iodine atoms enhances its biological activity and can influence its interaction with various biological targets. As a methyl ester, it is more lipophilic than its parent compound, which may affect its solubility and permeability in biological systems. The compound is generally stable under standard laboratory conditions but should be handled with care due to the reactivity of iodine-containing compounds. Its molecular structure allows for various modifications, making it a valuable tool in medicinal chemistry and drug design.
