Ref. 3D-FC59294

Product Information

• Name: 3-(4-cyanophenyl)propanoic acid
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 3-(4-Cyanophenyl)propanoic acid is an aldehyde that is synthesized by the ligation of benzyl and morpholine. It has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties, which are mediated through the inhibition of cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes. This molecule also has modular properties and can be used as a building block in the synthesis of biomolecules such as peptides and proteins. 3-(4-Cyanophenyl)propanoic acid can be used to synthesize isomeric forms and isomers of this molecule can be monitored using reaction monitoring, which may provide insight into the mechanism of action. The alkylation of this molecule with acrylonitrile leads to the production of 3-cyanopropanoic acid, an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals.
