| D-Cysteine Usage And Synthesis |
Chemical Properties | White crystalline powder | Uses | D-Cysteine has been used in the functionalization of QDs for applications in photocatalysis. It can also be used in the synthesis of:
- cysteine-based chiral carbon dots (CDs)
- D-luciferin and aminoluciferin analogs
| Definition | ChEBI: An optically active form of cysteine having D-configuration. | Purification Methods | Purify it by recrystallisation from H2O (free from metal ions) and dry it in a vacuum. It is soluble in H2O, EtOH, Me2CO, EtOAc, AcOH, *C6H6 and CS2. Acidic solutions can be stored under N2 for a few days without deterioration.
