Description

NSC 16590 inhibits the production of endogenous ethylene in the cotyledonary segments of cocklebur.


Solid


2-aminoisobutyric acid is a rare, non-protein amino acid and end-product of pyrimidine metabolism, excreted in urine and found in some antibiotics of fungal origin. With the exception of a few bacteria, it is non-metabolisable, and therefore used in bioassays. It derives from a propionic acid and an isobutyric acid.

Aminoisobutyric acid Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

Dissolve the acetone cyanohydrin in methanol and pass ammonia to saturation under cooling. After the methanol was distilled off, water and hydrobromic acid were added, and the reaction was carried out under reflux for 2 hours, and then the hydrobromic acid was distilled off under reduced pressure. The residue is dissolved in methanol, pyridine is added until the Congo red is neutral, and the free ion 2-aminoisobutyric acid is separated out, and the yield is about 30%.

Uses

2-Methylalanineinotransferases which can be used as a diagnostic tool to predict type II diabetes.
