• Description: L-Proline methyl ester hydrochloride is an organic compound that is classified as a trifluoroacetic acid ester. It has significant antiproliferative activity and induces apoptotic cell death in colorectal carcinoma cells. L-Proline methyl ester hydrochloride also inhibits the proliferation of lymphocytes by inhibiting protein synthesis, which may be due to its conformational properties. L-Proline methyl ester hydrochloride is synthesized by reacting L-proline with trifluoroacetic acid and subsequently hydrolyzing the resulting ester with hydrochloric acid. The synthesis can be carried out in two steps: first, a chloride ion is added to the protonated form of the amine; second, the protonated form of the amine reacts with hydrophobic compounds such as dodecyl amines or ethyl acetate to form an alkyl group. This reaction can also be carried out using
