Benzeneacetic acid, a-amino-2-methyl-, hydrochloride

Description:
Benzeneacetic acid, α-amino-2-methyl-, hydrochloride, also known as a derivative of phenylalanine, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic benzene ring and an amino acid structure. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline solid and is soluble in water due to the presence of the hydrochloride salt form, which enhances its solubility compared to the free base. The presence of the amino group (-NH2) contributes to its basicity and potential reactivity in biochemical processes. It may exhibit properties typical of both amino acids and carboxylic acids, including the ability to participate in peptide bond formation and act as a weak acid. This compound is of interest in pharmaceutical research and may have applications in the synthesis of various biologically active molecules. As with many amino acid derivatives, it may also play a role in metabolic pathways and could be studied for its potential therapeutic effects. Safety data should be consulted for handling and usage, as with all chemical substances.
