Boc-Arg(Boc)2-OH

Description:
Boc-Arg(Boc)2-OH, also known as Nα,Nα-bis(Boc)-L-arginine, is a protected form of the amino acid arginine, commonly used in peptide synthesis and biochemistry. The "Boc" (tert-butyloxycarbonyl) groups serve as protecting groups for the amino functionalities, allowing for selective reactions without interference from the amino groups. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white solid and is soluble in organic solvents such as dichloromethane and dimethylformamide, but less soluble in water. Its structure includes a guanidinium group characteristic of arginine, which contributes to its basicity and potential interactions in biological systems. The presence of multiple Boc groups enhances stability and facilitates the handling of the compound during synthesis. Boc-Arg(Boc)2-OH is often utilized in the preparation of peptides where the arginine residue needs to be protected until the desired stage of synthesis, making it a valuable intermediate in the field of medicinal chemistry and peptide research.
