Methyl 2-amino-3-thenoate(CAT: M289941) is a heterocyclic compound featuring a thienyl ring (derived from thiophene) substituted with an amino group at the 2-position and a methyl ester at the 3-position. This multifunctional molecule serves as a valuable intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and heterocyclic scaffolds. The amino group offers nucleophilicity for further derivatization (e.g., amide formation or cyclization), while the ester group is reactive in hydrolysis or transesterification reactions. Its thiophene core imparts electron-rich aromatic character, often desirable in biologically active compounds.
