Boc-Phe-OSu(CAT: L042870) (tert-Butyloxycarbonyl-L-phenylalanine N-hydroxysuccinimide ester) is a protected amino acid derivative commonly used in peptide synthesis. The Boc (tert-butyloxycarbonyl) group serves as a protecting group for the amino group of phenylalanine, while the OSu (N-hydroxysuccinimide ester) activates the carboxyl group for efficient coupling with other amino acids or peptides. This compound is particularly valuable in solid-phase and solution-phase peptide synthesis, enabling precise assembly of peptide chains. Boc-Phe-OSu is essential for creating custom peptides and peptidomimetics in pharmaceutical research, providing stability and reactivity that simplify the synthesis of complex sequences.
