(2S)-2-[(tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino]hexanedioic acid

Description:
(2S)-2-[(tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino]hexanedioic acid, commonly referred to as Boc-L-lysine, is an amino acid derivative characterized by the presence of a tert-butoxycarbonyl (Boc) protecting group on the amino group of lysine. This compound features a hexanedioic acid backbone, which includes two carboxylic acid functional groups, contributing to its acidity and reactivity. The Boc group serves to protect the amino functionality during peptide synthesis, allowing for selective reactions at other functional sites. The stereochemistry of the molecule is specified as (2S), indicating that the amino group is on the second carbon in the chain, which is crucial for its biological activity and interaction with enzymes. This compound is typically used in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of peptides and other complex molecules. Its solubility in polar solvents and stability under various conditions make it a valuable intermediate in pharmaceutical and biochemical applications. Additionally, the presence of both hydrophilic and hydrophobic regions in the molecule influences its interactions in biological systems.
