Beschreibung

2-(Acetylamino)butanoic acid is a β-amino acid that inhibits the enzyme phosphotransferase. It is used as an inhibitor in biochemistry to study the mechanism of enzymes and to produce β-amino acids. 2-(Acetylamino)butanoic acid has been shown to inhibit the growth of corynebacterium glutamicum, a bacterium that produces enzymes that are necessary for cell growth. This compound also has asymmetric synthesis properties and can be used to produce enantiomers of other compounds. The reaction mechanism is thought to involve a chlorine atom attacking the double bond between carbons 1 and 2, forming an acyl chloride intermediate. This intermediate then reacts with hydroxide ion from the solution to form 2-(acetylamino)butanoic acid.
