I-N(epsilon)-Trifluoroacetyl-L-lysine iyinhlanganisela yamakhemikhali ephawulekayo eyaziwa ngesakhiwo sayo esiyingqayizivele sama-molecule kanye nezicelo ezahlukahlukene emikhakheni eyahlukene. Ngesakhiwo samakhemikhali i-C14H21F3N2O5, i-N(epsilon)-trifluoroacetyl-L-lysine itholakala ku-lysine, i-amino acid ebalulekile, eneqembu le-trifluoroacetyl (-CF3CO) elinamathele eqenjini layo le-epsilon amino. Lokhu kuguqulwa kuthuthukisa ukuzinza kwayo futhi kushintsha izakhiwo zayo zamakhemikhali, okwenza ibe yigugu ocwaningweni lwe-biochemical, ukwakheka kwe-peptide, kanye ne-chemistry yemithi. I-N(epsilon)-Trifluoroacetyl-L-lysine yenziwa ngokusabela kwe-lysine nge-anhydride ye-trifluoroacetic ngaphansi kwezimo ezilawulwayo, okuholela esiqinile sekristalu esinezici ezithile zokuncibilika.
