CAS 24601-74-9: Valine N-carboxyanhydride

Description: Valine N-carboxyanhydride (VCA) is a cyclic derivative of the amino acid valine, characterized by its unique structure that includes a carboxylic acid group and an anhydride linkage. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid and is known for its ability to undergo polymerization, making it useful in the synthesis of polypeptides and other polymeric materials. VCA is soluble in organic solvents, which facilitates its use in various chemical reactions. Its reactivity is primarily attributed to the anhydride functional group, which can readily react with nucleophiles, including amines, to form peptide bonds. This property is particularly valuable in the field of biochemistry and materials science, where it is employed in the development of biodegradable polymers and drug delivery systems. Additionally, valine N-carboxyanhydride can be utilized in research settings to study protein synthesis and folding mechanisms. As with many chemical substances, handling VCA requires appropriate safety precautions due to its potential reactivity and the need for proper storage conditions to maintain its stability.
