Description

3,4-Dimethoxyphenylacetone was used as starting material in the synthesis of α-methyl-dopa, an important nonproteogenic α-amino acid for pharmaceutical applications. 3,4-Dimethoxyphenylacetone undergoes asymmetric amination catalyzed by Brevibacterium linens IFO 12141 strain to yield corresponding optically active amine This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
