(±)-Methionine sulfone

Description:

(±)-Methionine sulfone, with the CAS number 820-10-0, is a sulfonic acid derivative of the amino acid methionine. It is characterized by the presence of a sulfone functional group, which consists of a sulfur atom bonded to two oxygen atoms and two carbon atoms from the methionine backbone. This compound exists as a racemic mixture, meaning it contains equal amounts of both enantiomers, which can exhibit different biological activities. (±)-Methionine sulfone is typically a white crystalline solid and is soluble in water, making it suitable for various biochemical applications. It is often used in research related to amino acid metabolism and can serve as a model compound for studying sulfonation reactions. Additionally, it may play a role in the synthesis of other biologically active compounds. Its stability and reactivity are influenced by the presence of the sulfone group, which can participate in various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions and oxidation processes.

2-Amino-4-(methylsulfonyl)butanoic acid

CAS: 820-10-0

2-Amino-4-(methylsulfonyl)butanoic acid is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug that belongs to the group of sulfonamides. It is a prodrug that is hydrolyzed in vivo to its active form, 4-(methylsulfonyl)butanamide. 2-Amino-4-(methylsulfonyl)butanoic acid has been shown to be effective in the treatment of pain and inflammation in animal models. The mechanism of action has not been fully elucidated, but it may be due to its ability to inhibit prostaglandin synthesis by blocking the enzyme cyclooxygenase. This drug also inhibits glutamate release and may have epigenetic modulating effects on gene expression. 2-Amino-4-(methylsulfonyl)butanoic acid has been found to have matrix effect on physiological effects such as blood pressure, heart rate, and respiration. This drug also binds
