Chemical Properties

solid

Uses

N-Acetyl-L-Tryptophan, is a derivative of L-Tryptophan (T947210), that can be used as competitive inhibitor to identify and characterize tryptophanases. It can also be used as an NK1 tachykinin receptor antagonist, that may help to develop a novel therapeutic intervention for the treatment of reperfusion injury in acute ischemic stroke.

Definition

ChEBI: A N-acetyl-L-amino acid that is the N-acetyl derivative of L-tryptophan.

Biological Activity

N-Acetyl-L-tryptophan (NAT, Ac-Trp-OH) is used a substance P NK1 tachykinin receptor antagonist. N-Acetyl-L-tryptophan is also used as a competitive inhibitor to identify, differentiate and characterized tryptophanase(s).

Safety Profile

Moderately toxic by some routes. An experimental teratogen. Other experimental reproductive effects. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of NOX,.

Synthesis

1218-34-4

4.1.8.4 Synthesis of N-acetyl-L-tryptophan (10b) L-tryptophan (1.00 g, 4.95 mmol) was dissolved in a mixed solution of acetone (20 mL) and 2 N NaOH (15 mL). Acetyl chloride (0.821 mL, 9.90 mmol) was added slowly and dropwise at room temperature, while 2 N NaOH was added to maintain the pH of the reaction system greater than 10. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hr. Upon completion of the reaction, the acetone was removed by vacuum evaporation and the remaining aqueous phase was acidified to acidity with 3 N HCl. The aqueous phase was extracted with ethyl acetate (3 × 50 mL) and the organic phase was combined. The organic phase was washed with saturated saline and dried over anhydrous Na2SO4. The organic phase was concentrated under reduced pressure to give N-acetyl-L-tryptophan 10b (0.96 g, 80% yield) as a colorless solid.ESI/MS m/z: 246.1 [M + H]+; 1H NMR (500 MHz, DMSO) δ 12.55 (s, 1H), 10.84 (s, 1H), 8.14 (d, J = 8.0 Hz, 1H), 7.52 (d, J = 8.0 Hz, 1H), 7.33 (d, J = 8.0 Hz, 1H), 7.13 (d, J = 2.0 Hz, 1H), 7.06 (dd, J = 11.0, 4.0 Hz, 1H), 6.98 (t, J = 7.5 Hz, 1H), 4.46 (td, J = 8.5, 5.0 Hz, 1H), 3.15 (dd, J = 14.5, 5.0 Hz, 1H), 2.98 (dd, J = 14.5, 8.5 Hz, 1H), 1.80 (s, 3H).
