Undecylenoyl phenylalanine (CAS: 175357-18-3) is a lipophilic amino acid derivative formed by the conjugation of phenylalanine with undecylenic acid. It is supplied as a white to off-white powder and functions as a skin-lightening agent by antagonising α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH) and β-adrenergic receptors, thereby reducing melanin production in melanocytes.
