Dehydroalanine is the most common dehydroamino acid. Notice that it is not chiral. Examples A common dehydroamino acid is dehydroalanine derived from dehydration of serine (as well as removal of H2S from cysteine). Another example is dehydrobutyrine, derived from dehydration of threonine.
Methyl 2-acetamidoacrylate, by virtue of the N-acetyl group is a stabilized derivative of dehydroalanine. is the organic compound with the formula CH2=C(NHC(O)CH3)CO2CH3. It is the methyl ester of an N-acetylacrylic acid, which in turn is a derivative of the unstable compound dehydroalanine Examples A common dehydroamino acid is dehydroalanine , which otherwise exists only as a residue in proteins and peptides. The dehydroalanine residue is obtained dehydration of serine-containing protein/peptide. (as well as removal of H2S from cysteine). Another example is dehydrobutyrine, derived from dehydration of threonine.
