(R)-3-氨基-3-(4-甲氧基苯基)-丙酸 - Introduction

(R)-3-Amino -3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-propionic acid, also known as L-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)alanine or simply L-MPAA, is an organic compound. Its molecular formula is C10H13NO3 and its molecular weight is 195.22g/mol.

Nature:
L-MPAA is a colorless crystalline solid that is relatively stable at room temperature. It is optically active in the levorotatory (R) configuration. It has an acidic carboxyl group (-COOH) and an amino group (-NH2), as well as a 3-phenylpropyl side chain connecting them. Its appearance is similar to powder or granules.

Use:
L-MPAA have important applications in drug synthesis. It is commonly used as a chiral intermediate for the preparation of antibiotics, hormones, enzyme inhibitors, and other drugs. In addition, it can also be used as a food additive, which can increase the flavor and taste of food.

Preparation Method:
L-MPAA can be prepared by synthetic methods. A common method is the reaction of 4-methoxybenzaldehyde with alanine to synthesize L-MPAA through a multi-step chemical reaction in the presence of an appropriate catalyst.

Safety Information:
L-MPAA is relatively stable under general conditions, but long-term exposure to strong oxidants and strong acids should be avoided. During storage and handling, care should be taken to prevent contact with air and humidity. In addition, for any chemical substances, the correct laboratory specifications and operating methods should be followed, and personal protective measures should be paid attention. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment such as glasses, gloves and laboratory coats when using or handling L-MPAA. In case of any accident, seek medical attention immediately.
