Benzyl N-(3-hydroxypropyl)carbamate(CAT: L048602) is a carbamate derivative often used in organic synthesis and pharmaceutical research. This compound features a benzyl group attached to the nitrogen of a carbamate, with a 3-hydroxypropyl chain attached to the other side. The hydroxyl group provides a functional handle for further chemical modifications, enabling it to serve as a versatile intermediate in synthesizing biologically active compounds, including drugs and agrochemicals. The carbamate linkage is stable under physiological conditions, making it useful in prodrug strategies where it can be enzymatically or chemically cleaved in vivo to release active substances. This compound is also applicable in polymer chemistry and the design of protective groups in peptide synthesis due to its stability and ease of removal under mild conditions.
