Introduction
(S)-2-amino-3-cyclohexyl hydrate (3-cyclohexyl-L-alanine hydrate) is an organic compound. The following is an introduction to its properties, uses, manufacturing methods and safety information:
Quality:
Appearance: White crystalline powder or crystalline lumps
Solubility: Dissolves in water
Use:
3-Cyclohexyl-L-Alanine Hydrate is an amino acid derivative that is commonly used as a chiral catalyst in organic synthesis.
Method:
(S)-2-amino-3-cyclohexylpropionic acid hydrate can be synthesized by the following steps:
Cyclohexene is first converted to cyclohexane by hydrogenation.
Cyclohexyl alcohol is obtained by hydroxylation of cyclohexane using sodium hydroxide or other bases.
Cyclohexyl alcohol is esterified with propionic acid to obtain cyclohexyl propionate.
Cyclohexylpropionate is reacted with the amino acid L-alanine to form (S)-2-amino-3-cyclohexylpropionic acid.
