Product Information

• Name: 2-Hydroxy-2-phenylbutanoic acid
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2-Hydroxy-2-phenylbutanoic acid is a ligand that can bind to metal ions. It has a molecular electrostatic potential of -0.07 and a low vibrational frequency of 0.01. It has been shown that this ligand can be immobilized on surfaces where it can be used for the determination of amino acids, expressed proteins, and chiral compounds. This ligand has been shown to have good binding affinity for metal ions which makes it a useful tool in immobilization studies. 2-Hydroxy-2-phenylbutanoic acid is an amide that contains two hydroxy groups, one phenyl group, and one carboxylic acid group. It is also chiral due to its asymmetric carbon atom which means that there are two different forms of the molecule, one being levorotary (R) and the other being dextrorotary (S). The functional theory shows that 2-hydroxy-2
