Boc-N-Ethylglycine（Cat No.:R021478）is a derivative of the amino acid glycine, where the N-terminal amine group is protected by a tert-butoxycarbonyl (Boc) group, and the amine group of glycine is substituted with an ethyl group (N-ethyl). This modification helps prevent unwanted reactions during peptide synthesis, particularly in solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS). The Boc protection allows selective deprotection of the amine group, while the N-ethyl substitution can influence the steric and electronic properties of the resulting peptides. Boc-N-Ethylglycine is used in peptide synthesis and as an intermediate in drug development and bioactive peptide research.
