:Boc-DL-Ile-OH
Description:
Boc-DL-Ile-OH, or N-tert-butoxycarbonyl-DL-isoleucine, is a derivative of isoleucine, an essential amino acid. It features a tert-butoxycarbonyl (Boc) protecting group, which is commonly used in peptide synthesis to protect the amino group of amino acids. This compound is characterized by its white to off-white crystalline solid form and is soluble in organic solvents such as methanol and dichloromethane, but generally insoluble in water. The Boc group provides stability during chemical reactions and can be removed under acidic conditions, allowing for further functionalization or incorporation into peptides. The presence of both D and L isomers in its structure indicates that it can exist in two enantiomeric forms, which may have different biological activities. Boc-DL-Ile-OH is primarily utilized in the synthesis of peptides and in research settings, particularly in studies related to protein structure and function. Its careful handling is essential due to the potential reactivity of the Boc group and the need for proper storage conditions to maintain its integrity.
