D-Cysteine methyl ester, with the CAS number 88806-98-8, is a derivative of the amino acid cysteine, characterized by the presence of a methyl ester group attached to the carboxylic acid functional group of cysteine. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline solid and is soluble in polar solvents such as water and methanol, owing to its amino and ester functional groups. D-Cysteine methyl ester retains the thiol (-SH) group characteristic of cysteine, which contributes to its reactivity and potential applications in biochemical research, particularly in studies involving protein synthesis and modification. It is often used as a building block in peptide synthesis and may also serve as a reducing agent in various chemical reactions. The compound's properties, including its stability and reactivity, can be influenced by factors such as pH and temperature, making it important to handle it under controlled conditions in laboratory settings. As with many thiol-containing compounds, it may exhibit a characteristic odor and should be handled with care due to potential reactivity.
