S-Allyl-D-cysteine（Cat No.:I043011）is a sulfur-containing amino acid derivative where the thiol group of cysteine is modified with an allyl group. This modification enhances the compound’s stability and reactivity, making it useful in organic synthesis and peptide chemistry. S-Allyl-D-cysteine can be employed in the design of peptides with specific bioactive properties, such as in cancer research, due to its potential to interact with cellular signaling pathways. It may also serve as a precursor for synthesizing other cysteine derivatives. Upon synthesis, the allyl group can be removed, allowing for the formation of free thiol groups for further reactions.
