Description:Boc-D-alpha-phenylglycine, with the CAS number 33125-05-2, is a protected amino acid commonly used in peptide synthesis and medicinal chemistry. It features a tert-butyloxycarbonyl (Boc) protecting group attached to the amino group, which enhances its stability and solubility during chemical reactions. The "D" designation indicates that it is the D-enantiomer of alpha-phenylglycine, which is characterized by a phenyl group attached to the alpha carbon of the glycine structure. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in organic solvents such as dichloromethane and dimethyl sulfoxide, but less soluble in water. Its structure allows for the introduction of chirality in peptide chains, making it valuable in the synthesis of biologically active compounds. Additionally, Boc-D-alpha-phenylglycine can serve as a building block in the development of pharmaceuticals, particularly in the design of inhibitors or modulators of biological pathways. Proper handling and storage are essential due to its chemical properties and potential reactivity.
