2-((tert-Butoxycarbonyl)amino)-2-(3-chlorophenyl)acetic acid(CAT: L024073) is a protected amino acid derivative frequently used in organic synthesis and pharmaceutical research. Its structure features a tert-butoxycarbonyl (Boc) protecting group, an amino functional group, and a 3-chlorophenyl moiety attached to the acetic acid backbone, making it versatile for peptide synthesis and drug development. The Boc group ensures stability during multi-step synthetic processes while enabling selective deprotection when needed. This compound is particularly valuable in designing bioactive molecules and intermediates for structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies. Researchers employ it as a building block in medicinal chemistry to explore therapeutic agents targeting diverse biological pathways.
