γ-AMino-benzenepentanoic Acid

Description:
γ-Amino-benzenepentanoic acid, also known as 5-amino-2-phenylpentanoic acid, is an organic compound characterized by its amino acid structure, which includes both an amino group (-NH2) and a carboxylic acid group (-COOH) attached to a pentanoic acid backbone with a phenyl group. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in polar solvents, such as water and alcohols, due to the presence of its functional groups. It exhibits properties typical of amino acids, including the ability to participate in peptide bond formation, making it relevant in biochemical applications. The presence of the phenyl group contributes to its hydrophobic characteristics, influencing its interactions in biological systems. γ-Amino-benzenepentanoic acid may also exhibit biological activity, potentially acting as a neurotransmitter or modulator, although specific pharmacological properties would require further investigation. As with many amino acids, it may play a role in protein synthesis and could be of interest in research related to metabolic pathways or drug development.
