3-Bromo-D-phenylalanine(CAT: L036699) is an amino acid derivative where a bromine atom is substituted at the 3rd position of the phenyl ring in the D-enantiomer of phenylalanine. This compound is commonly used in peptide synthesis and pharmaceutical research due to its ability to introduce halogen atoms into bioactive molecules, which can affect the compound’s biological activity, stability, and interaction with enzymes or receptors. The D-configuration ensures that the molecule fits into specific stereochemical environments, which is important for drug design, enzyme studies, and structural biology. The bromine atom can also serve as a reactive site for further chemical transformations, such as cross-coupling reactions.
