boc-L-homophenylalanine

Description:
Boc-L-homophenylalanine is a derivative of the amino acid homophenylalanine, characterized by the presence of a tert-butyloxycarbonyl (Boc) protecting group on the amino group. This modification enhances its stability and solubility, making it useful in peptide synthesis and other biochemical applications. The structure of Boc-L-homophenylalanine includes a phenyl group, which contributes to its hydrophobic properties, and a side chain that is similar to phenylalanine, allowing it to participate in various interactions in peptide chains. The compound is typically white to off-white in appearance and is soluble in organic solvents like dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and methanol, but less soluble in water. Its molecular formula reflects the presence of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen, consistent with its classification as an amino acid derivative. Boc-L-homophenylalanine is often utilized in the synthesis of peptides for research and pharmaceutical applications, particularly in studies involving protein structure and function. Proper handling and storage conditions are essential to maintain its integrity and reactivity.
