Description

(S)-3-Amino-3-(4-Methoxy-Phenyl)-Propionic Acid is a high-purity, non-natural chiral amino acid derivative of significant importance in modern organic synthesis. This compound serves as a critical chiral building block and intermediate for the development of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and fine chemicals. It is primarily utilized by research institutions and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty chemical industries for applications requiring high stereochemical purity.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key chiral synthon for the synthesis of novel drug candidates, particularly in central nervous system (CNS) and metabolic disorder research.
• Peptide Synthesis: Used in solid-phase and solution-phase peptide synthesis to incorporate a constrained, non-proteinogenic amino acid residue with a methoxyphenyl side chain.
• Chemical Biology Probes: Serves as a building block for creating labeled compounds, enzyme inhibitors, and molecular probes for biochemical studies.
• Agrochemical Research: An intermediate in the development of chiral herbicides, fungicides, and plant growth regulators.
• Catalyst and Ligand Development: Utilized in the preparation of chiral catalysts and ligands for asymmetric synthesis.
• Academic & Industrial R&D: A valuable reagent for methodological development in organic chemistry and medicinal chemistry programs.
