Phenylalanine,3-methoxy-

Description:
Phenylalanine, 3-methoxy- (CAS 7635-28-1) is an aromatic amino acid derivative characterized by the presence of a methoxy group (-OCH3) at the meta position relative to the amino group on the phenylalanine structure. This compound is a non-essential amino acid, meaning it can be synthesized by the body, and it plays a role in protein synthesis. The methoxy substitution can influence its solubility and reactivity compared to standard phenylalanine. Typically, phenylalanine derivatives exhibit properties such as being colorless to pale yellow solids or liquids, with moderate solubility in water and organic solvents, depending on the specific structure. The presence of the methoxy group may also impart unique biological activities or interactions, making it of interest in various fields, including biochemistry and pharmacology. As with many amino acids, it can participate in various biochemical pathways, including neurotransmitter synthesis. Safety and handling precautions should be observed, as with all chemical substances, due to potential reactivity and biological effects.
