Amino acids are highly relevant in biological pathways
and for protein and enzyme structures or for the
synthesis of neurotransmitter. An essential amino acid
is L-phenylalanine (Phe). The use of fluorinated amino
acids are of great interest in medical chemistry and
diagnostics especially for the investigation of amino
acid metabolism, protein structures and protein-ligand
interactions. The disadvantage of low spin density in
vivo can be overcome by hyperpolarization methods like
Parahydrogen Induced Polarization. We present the
hyperpolarization of a bisfluorinated phenylalanine
derivative and studies of the interaction between Phe
and
-cyclodextrin.
