* Please kindly note that our products are not to be used for therapeutic purposes and cannot be sold to patients.

(S)-2-Amino-4-(p-tolyl)butanoic acid is a chiral amino acid derivative characterized by the presence of a p-tolyl group (a phenyl ring substituted with a methyl group at the para position) attached to the 4-position of the butanoic acid backbone. The (S) configuration indicates the specific stereochemistry at the chiral center, which can influence the molecule's biological interactions. This compound is used in peptide synthesis to introduce aromatic and hydrophobic properties, which can affect the folding, stability, and function of the peptide or protein in which it is incorporated.
