DL-Serine methyl ester hydrochloride is a derivative of serine, an amino acid. It is a methyl ester of DL-serine, meaning the hydroxyl group (-OH) on the carboxylic acid (-COOH) of serine is replaced with a methyl group (-CH3). Being a hydrochloride salt, it is more water-soluble and stable compared to its base form. It is commonly used in research and chemical synthesis due to its structural and functional properties. It acts as a building block or intermediate for the synthesis of peptides, esters, and other biologically active molecules and in organic synthesis for designing molecules with serine-like functionalities.
