Description

N-alpha-Benzoyl-L-lysine is a lysine analogue that has been shown to have anaphylactic effects in pigs. This compound is synthesized by reacting the benzoyl chloride with L-lysine. The reaction scheme for this synthesis can be found in Figure 1 below. In order to produce this product, it is necessary to first dissolve the reactants in a solvent such as dichloromethane or chloroform. The solvents are then removed by evaporation and the residue obtained is purified by recrystallization or chromatography. N-alpha-Benzoyl-L-lysine has also been shown to be able to elicit formyl amides from plant cells, which may lead to new insights into how plants respond to environmental cues.
