Description:Boc-D-Leu-OH·H2O, with the CAS number 200937-17-3, is a chemical compound that serves as a protected form of the amino acid leucine. The "Boc" (tert-butyloxycarbonyl) group is a common protecting group used in peptide synthesis to prevent unwanted reactions at the amino group. This compound is characterized by its stability under standard laboratory conditions, making it suitable for various synthetic applications, particularly in the field of peptide chemistry. The presence of water in its hydrated form indicates that it can exist as a crystalline solid, which is often advantageous for storage and handling. Boc-D-Leu-OH·H2O is typically used in the synthesis of peptides where the leucine residue is required, allowing for selective deprotection of the amino group when needed. Its solubility in organic solvents and water facilitates its use in diverse chemical reactions. Overall, this compound is an important intermediate in the synthesis of biologically active peptides and pharmaceuticals.
