2-((tert-Butoxycarbonyl)(methyl)amino)propanoic acid（Cat No.:R045642）is a key intermediate in peptide synthesis and pharmaceutical research. As a Boc-protected N-methyl alanine derivative, it plays a crucial role in solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) by protecting the amine group, allowing selective deprotection and coupling reactions. Its tert-butoxycarbonyl (Boc) group ensures stability under mild conditions, while the methylated nitrogen enhances steric hindrance, influencing peptide structure and function. This compound is widely used in medicinal chemistry, bioactive peptide development, and drug discovery, particularly in the synthesis of modified peptides with improved pharmacokinetic properties.
