![The image depicts the chemical structure of the compound tyrosine, an amino acid. Here is a detailed description of the structure:
- **Amino Group (NH₂):** Positioned at the top left of the structure, consisting of a nitrogen atom (N) bonded to two hydrogen atoms (H).
- **Central Carbon (C):** At the center, bonded to the amino group, a hydrogen atom, and a side chain.
- **Carboxyl Group (COOH):** Located at the top right, it includes a carbon atom double-bonded to an oxygen atom and single-bonded to a hydroxyl group (OH).
- **Side Chain (CH₂-C₆H₄OH):** Extends downward from the central carbon:
- **CH₂ Group:** Directly attached to the central carbon.
- **Phenol Group (C₆H₄OH):** A benzene ring (hexagon) with alternating double bonds, having a hydroxyl group (OH) attached at one carbon.
This structure represents tyrosine, which is involved in protein synthesis and various metabolic pathways.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F7463362d-df48-499b-92b9-3246e7940dac%2F3f5d7c34-b74a-4439-8b82-fbd01af93319%2Foaby4bs_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
