Description
4-Amino-3-(4-fluorophenyl)butanoic acid (CAS No. 52237-19-1) is a fluorinated derivative of the well-known GABA analog phenibut, with the molecular formula C10H12FNO2. This high-purity compound is synthesized for advanced research applications, particularly in neuroscience and pharmacology. The addition of a fluorine atom at the para position of the phenyl ring enhances its potential metabolic stability and bioavailability, making it a valuable tool for studying GABAB receptor interactions. Our product is rigorously tested by HPLC and NMR to ensure ≥98% purity, supplied as a white to off-white crystalline powder under inert packaging to maintain stability. Ideal for structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies, this compound is available in research quantities from milligrams to grams with custom bulk options.
