<h3>Overview</h3>
<p><strong>4-Nitro-L-phenylalanine monohydrate</strong> (CAS: 207591-86-4) is a chiral nitro-amino acid derivative synthesized via nitration of L-phenylalanine. Its molecular formula is C<sub>9</sub>H<sub>10</sub>N<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub>. This high-purity intermediate serves as a critical building block for asymmetric synthesis.</p>
<h3>Application</h3>
<ul>
<li>Pharmaceuticals: Precursor for HIV protease inhibitors and antihypertensive agents.</li>
<li>Peptide Chemistry: Used in solid-phase synthesis to introduce specific steric hindrance.</li>
<li>Research: Standard reagent for studying enzymatic pathways and metabolic regulation.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Precautions</h3>
<p>Store under inert atmosphere at 2-8°C away from light. Handle with appropriate PPE due to potential mutagenicity. Not approved for direct human consumption or clinical use without further derivatization.</p>
