Molecular Weight:167.59

Aminolevulinic acid, also known as ALA, is a topically administered metabolic precursor of protoporphyrin IX. After topical administration, aminolevulinic acid (ALA) is converted to protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) which is a photosensitizer. When the proper wavelength of light activates protoporphyrin IX, singlet oxygen is produced, resulting in a local cytotoxic effect. In 1999, FDA approved this drug for for actinic keratosis.

Yield:5451-09-2 96.6%

Reaction Conditions:

with hydrogenchloride in water; for 6 h;Reflux;

Steps:

2.1; 2.1-1; 2.2; 2.1-2; 2.3-2.17; 2.1-3; 2.5.3; 3

Dissolve 2.00 g of 5-phthalimide levulinic acid obtained in the previous step with 40 ml of 6N hydrochloric acid and heat it for reaction at reflux for 6 hours, decolorize and filter on activated carbon, distill under reduced pressure to remove water to the end, and recrystallize the remainder with acetone , To obtain 1.24 g of solid. According to the proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum data, the obtained solid is determined to be 5-aminolevulinic acid hydrochloride, with a yield of 96.6% (calculated as 5-phthalimidolevulinic acid); mp: 149°C, purity ( HPLC, a/a%) 99.9%.
