ChEBI: 3-hydroxynorvaline is a non-proteinogenic amino-acid derivative that is norvaline (2-aminopentanoic acid) in which a hydrogen at position 3 is replaced by a hydroxy group. It is a non-proteinogenic amino acid derivative and a non-proteinogenic alpha-amino acid. It is functionally related to a 2-aminopentanoic acid.
Purification Methods
Purify it by recrystallisation from aqueous EtOH. The Cu salt has m 255-256o (dec), the benzoyl derivative has m 181o, and the N-phenylcarbamoyl derivative has m 164o. [Buston et al. J Biol Chem 204 665 1953, Beilstein 4 IV 3220.]
