R-2-Aminoheptanoic acid

R-2-Aminoheptanoic acid is a free amino acid featuring a seven-carbon aliphatic chain with the amino group on the 2-position, classifying it as a straight-chain, non-aromatic aliphatic amino acid. The molecule contains a primary α-amino group and a carboxylic acid, with a stereogenic center at C-2 that is not specified in the product name, and its side chain is a flexible hydrocarbon that can influence peptide conformations through hydrophobic character. As an unprotected amino acid, it is used as a building block for solution-phase or solid-phase peptide synthesis and as a substrate component in chemical biology and analytical studies where defined aliphatic side-chain length and hydrophobicity are relevant.

Designed for biological research and industrial applications, not intended for individual clinical or medical purposes.
