Description:Boc-Ser(Me)-OH, also known as N-Boc-Serine methyl ester, is a derivative of the amino acid serine, characterized by the presence of a tert-butyloxycarbonyl (Boc) protecting group on the amino group and a methyl ester on the carboxylic acid group. This compound is typically used in peptide synthesis and organic chemistry as a building block due to its ability to protect functional groups during reactions. The Boc group provides stability and protects the amine from unwanted reactions, while the methyl ester facilitates the coupling reactions necessary for peptide formation. Boc-Ser(Me)-OH is generally a white to off-white solid and is soluble in common organic solvents. Its reactivity is influenced by the presence of the Boc and methyl ester groups, allowing for selective deprotection and further functionalization. As with many chemical substances, proper handling and storage are essential, as it may have specific safety and toxicity considerations.
