:(R)-2-(Methylamino)pentanedioic acid
Description:
(R)-2-(Methylamino)pentanedioic acid, also known as L-2-amino-4-methylpentanedioic acid, is an amino acid derivative characterized by its structure, which includes a pentanedioic acid backbone with a methylamino group at the second carbon. This compound is a chiral molecule, existing in two enantiomeric forms, with the (R) configuration being biologically relevant. It is typically a white crystalline solid that is soluble in water due to the presence of carboxylic acid groups, which can ionize at physiological pH. The presence of the methylamino group contributes to its basicity and potential interactions in biological systems. This compound is of interest in biochemical research and may play a role in metabolic pathways or as a building block for peptide synthesis. Its CAS number, 77481-28-8, is a unique identifier that facilitates its identification in chemical databases. As with many amino acid derivatives, it may exhibit specific biological activities, making it relevant in pharmacology and medicinal chemistry.
