Beschreibung

4-Methyl-L-tryptophan is a tryptophan analog that can be used as a chemical tool to study biochemical properties. It has been shown to be an effective substrate for the synthesis of anthranilate and dimethylallyltryptophan, which are important intermediates in the biosynthesis of biologically active compounds. 4-Methyl-L-tryptophan also has a hydroxyl group that reacts with 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid, which is involved in the synthesis of indole alkaloids such as tryptamine and serotonin. The reaction mechanism of this compound is not well understood at this time.
