Description

2-Fluoro-4-methylpentanoic acid is a fluorinated organic compound that belongs to the class of amides. It has been shown to be hydrolyzed by acylases and other hydrolytic enzymes, with the elimination of an acetate group. 2-Fluoro-4-methylpentanoic acid has also been shown to form dimers in nature and crystallizes as a racemic mixture of diastereomers. Crystallographic studies have revealed that this molecule has stereogenic centers at both carbons 2 and 4, which are not equivalent. The fluorine atom on carbon 2 is attached to two hydrogen atoms, making it more acidic than if it were attached to only one hydrogen atom.
