Methyl 4-iodo-L-phenylalaninate hydrochloride（Cat No.:I043236）is a chemical compound used in peptide synthesis and medicinal chemistry. It is a modified form of phenylalanine, where the amino acid is esterified with a methyl group and iodinated at the 4-position of the aromatic ring. The iodine atom provides an electrophilic site for further reactions, such as in cross-coupling or radiolabeling applications. This compound is useful in the design of peptides with enhanced reactivity or for creating specific interactions in bioorganic chemistry, particularly in studies involving aromatic interactions or halogen-mediated reactions.
