Bachem offers a considerable choice of ring-substituted phenylalanines, protected derivatives of: p-Aminophenylalanine p-Azidophenylalanine p-Benzoylphenylalanine p-Biphenylalanine p-Bromophenylalanine p-t-Butylphenylalanine p-Carboxyphenylalanine p-Chlorophenylalanine p-Cyanophenylalanine 3,4-Dichlorophenylalanine Fluorophenylalanines p-Iodophenylalanine p-Methylphenylalanine p-Nitrophenylalanine p-Phosphonophenylalanine. p-Methoxy- and p-ethoxyphenylalanine derivatives are listed in the Tyr family, whereas β,β-diphenylalanine derivatives can be found in the "β-Substituted Alanines" family.


Key intermediate for the synthesis of amidines, which can be used as arginine mimetics. McMurray obtained p-Tetrazolylphenylalanine by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition with trimethyltin azide. Additionally, p-Cyanophenylalanine may serve as well as a IR- or Raman-probe in peptides and recombinant proteins. As a fluorophore, it has been used in combination with Trp in FRET substrates.
