Boc-Ala-Ala-OH（Cat No.:R035286）is a dipeptide derivative used in peptide synthesis, where the amino acid alanine (Ala) is linked to another alanine residue. The N-terminal amine group of the first alanine is protected by a tert-butoxycarbonyl (Boc) group, preventing unwanted reactions during peptide formation. This protection strategy is commonly used in solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS). The carboxyl group remains free for coupling with other amino acids to extend the peptide chain. Boc-Ala-Ala-OH serves as an intermediate in peptide chemistry, particularly in the design of bioactive peptides and therapeutic agents.
